so handsome, I command thee to appear as stupid as thou art horrible, and to remain in this state until a young and beautiful girl shall, of her own accord, come to seek thee, although fully persuaded thou wilt devour her. She must also,” continued the Fairy, “after discovering that her life is not in danger, conceive for thee a sufficiently tender affection to induce her to marry thee. Until thou 杭州按摩好的地方 canst meet with this rare maiden it is my pleasure that thou remain an object of horror to thyself and to all who behold thee. As for you, too happy mother of so lovely a child,” said she to the Queen, “I warn you that if you acknowledge to 杭州龙凤娱乐地图 any one that this monster is your son, he shall never recover his natural shape.
