Description

Once upon a time there lived a merchant who was exceedingly rich. He had six children-three boys and three girls-and being a sensible man he spared no expense upon their education, but engaged tutors of every kind for them. All his daughters were pretty, but the youngest especially was admired by everybody. When she was small she was known simply as “the little beauty,” and this name stuck to her, causing a great deal of jealousy on the part of her sisters.
