Explore "The Little Lame Prince (Abridged)" by Dinah Mulock on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
After this journey which had given the Prince so much pain, his desire to see the world had somehow faded away. He contented himself with reading his books, and looking out of the tower windows, and listening to his beloved little lark, which had come home with him that day, and had never left him again.
True, it kept out of the way; but though his nurse sometimes faintly heard it, and said, "What is that horrid noise outside? " she never got the faintest chance to make the lark into a pie.
