Blue Beard and Puss In Boots - Illustrated by R. Heighway (The Banbury Cross Series) - R. Heighway
Blue Beard.
ONCE upon a time there lived a man, who had beautiful houses in town and in the country, dishes of gold and silver, chairs and sofas covered with flowered satin, and carriages gilt all over with gold.
But alas! this man’s beard was blue, which made him so ugly and frightful that there was not any one who did not flee from him.
One of his neighbours, a lady of quality, had two beautiful daughters. Blue Beard asked her to give one of them to him as his wife, leaving to herself the choice which of the two it should be. Both the daughters, however, refused to have him, and each in turn gave him up to the other, not being able to make up their minds to marry a man whose beard was blue. But what disgusted them still more, was that he had already had several wives and no one knew what had become of them.
