The Princess On The

Road
-Kathleen Conyngham Greene

The play is about a

princess .She is the
newly wedded wife
of prince Florimund
who rules that
territory. She did
not like the formal
life of the palace.

She disguises herself as a

peasant girl and leaves the
palace secretly.

After traveling twelve miles on foot she enters a village.

The princess feels

thirsty and hungry.
But here is no one to
help her. A child tells
her that villagers
have gone for
harvesting.

She goes into a cottage and brings milk and bread.

Soon the villagers

arrive there and
accuse her of
stealing their
things. She tells
them that she is
the princess of that
land and asks
them to drive her
back to the Town.

The village folk laugh at

her and do not believe
her to be the princess.
They call her thief and
vagabond.

Meanwhile a Juggler arrives

there. The villagers greet him
respectfully. He recognizes the
princess and warns the
villagers to behave properly.
They do not believe him and
demand some proof of her
position.

The princess sings and

dances to prove her status
but they are not convinced.

At last the Juggler

suggests to the princess
to show them the juggling
of balls. She spins six
apples in the air without
letting them fall.

The villagers are

wonder-struck at
her marvellous
performance.

They offer a carriage to

take her back home.
