NOTES
Read by Cathy Dobson
"The Curse of the Seven Children" is a fairy tale about a king and queen who already have six sons. When the seventh child is due, the king must travel away. He tells his wife that when the baby is born, she should hang a lance out of the window if it is a boy and a distaff if it is girl. Shortly after this the queen bears a daughter. But a mistake is made and a lance is hung out of the window. Desperate for a daughter, the king returns and curses his seven sons. When he realizes his mistake it is already too late. Only the baby princess can save her
