"My friend," said the captain, "these oranges are different from any in this country, for each contains but one seed." Pusong had learned all that he needed to know, so he swam back to the shore, and the next morning announced that he was ready for the trial. Many people had assembled to hear the great seer. Pusong continued to read in his book, as though it was the source of his information.
When Pusong and his companion returned to the palace they were asked by the king how many acres they had cleared. They replied that they had cleared and planted about one thousand acres.
When Amo-Mongo saw how successful Pusong had been, he presented himself before the king, as his friend had done, and requested the hand of the Princess Catalina. The king, somewhat unwillingly, gave his consent, and these two were also married.
Tabloc-laui, a friend of Pusong's, passed by and saw him in the cage. "What are you there for?" Tabloc-laui asked. "Oh!" answered Pusong, "I am a prisoner here, as you see, because the chief wants me to marry his daughter and I don't want to do it. I am to stay here until I consent." "What a fool you are!" said Tabloc-laui.
There they all lived together, but Pusong and his wife, who in former times had treated Singalong very harshly, giving him only the bones and scraps from the table, were now obliged to act as servants in the kitchen of the king's new palace. The Enchanted Ring. There was once a king who had suffered for a long time with a painful disease, in spite of all the efforts of the doctors to cure it.
He had as friends an ape, named Amo-Mongo, and a wildcat, whose name was Singalong. The three friends were passing one day in front of the palace, and, seeing the three young ladies, were greatly charmed by their beauty. Pusong, who posed as a young aristocrat of considerable learning, determined to go before the king and declare his love for the Princess Isabel.
When a considerable time had elapsed without seeing his return, his servants searched for Pusong, in order to punish him, but he had escaped to the mountains. V. The Enchanted Prince. There was once a king who had three young and beautiful daughters named Isabel, Catalina, and Maria. In the capital city of the kingdom lived a young man known by the name of Juan Pusong.
The king had the princess summoned before him, and in the presence of Pusong asked her if she would accept this man as her husband. She dutifully expressed her willingness to do whatever her father wished, so the king granted the request of Pusong, who was immediately married to Isabel.
The chief, on seeing him, wondered, for he believed that Pusong was dead. "How is this?" he asked. "Did you not drown last week?" "By no means. I sank to the bottom, but I found that there was no water there. There is another world where the dead live again. I saw your father and he charged me to bid you go to him, and afterwards you will be able to come back here, if you wish to do so."
"Is that really true, Pusong?" asked the chief. "Yes, it is really true," was the reply. "Well, I will go there. I will have a cage made and go through the way you did." So the next morning the chief was submerged in the water, with the hope of coming back.
