One day a young stranger arrived at the palace, claiming she was a princess.
The queen had a room made ready for her, but, to put her to the test, she had a pea put in the bed and over it she put twenty mattresses and twenty feather down covers.
In the morning, when the young girl woke up, she was aching all over and covered in bruises because of that pea. Such a delicate and sensitive skin confirmed her claim to be a princess, and the queen considered her to be a suitable bride for the young prince and heir.
