bags of gold und a vast kingdom. In
one room In the stronghold under his
castle he placed all of his bags of
gold, in another room he placed all
of his jewels and in the third room he
plpced a pearl casket and in this he
Pat a scroll on which he wrote that all

who proved worthy.
Then the king called to him his
three sons, whose names were Rollo,
Carlos and Zalito. and to each he gave
