But Sharpeye struck the apple precisely in the middle, carrying away a bit of flesh from each cheek of the holder with it. Sharpeye declined the king's proposal to betroth him to his daughter immediately, and he returned to his brothers, when they rejoiced in their success like children, and then cast lotsl for the princess.2 The lot fell to Sharpeye, who married the princess, while his two brothers returned home, when they bought large estates and lived like princes. The brothers are once spoken of as "Swedes," for what reason does not appear. Another story on similar lines is that of the Swift-footed Princess (Kreutzwald); but here the various feats, including the race against the princess, who will not marryunless she is worsted in a foot-race, are performed by the gifted servants in the train of the prince who seeks her in marriage. 1 Their good faith and absence of envy is as conspicuous as in the case of the sons of Kalev (vol. i.p. 58). When the five Pandavas, the heroes of the Maha-Bharata, were returning victorious from an expedition during which Arjuna had won the princess Draupadi in a contest with the bow, their mother, hearing them coming, but not knowing what had happened, cried out, " Share equally what you have brought." Upon which it was arranged that she should become the joint wife of the five brother princes. THE IDIOT'S LUCK. We find this form of the story of the despised younger son in the "Strange Tale of an Ox" (Kreutzwald). A dying father leaves an ox to his third son, a simpleton, who goes to sell it, and when passing through a wood he hears a noise in a tree, and thinks it is an offer to buy the ox;.
