Excerpt from The Child's World: Fifth Reader

The sexton turned the key and a man without hat or cloak rushed past him and vanished.

It was the king. While he slept, his robes of state had disappeared; Wondering at the strange happening, he hurried on to the palace gate, bare headed and unrecognized. He passed the guards without stopping, and ran straight into the banquet room, which was blazing with lights and filled with noble guests. And 10! To his surprise and dismay, he saw seated on his throne another king wearing his own mantle and crown and holding his own scepter.
