"The Princess and the pea" is a fairytale that tells of a prince who was trying -in vain- to find the
right princess to marry with. When a a girl knocked on his door on a rainy night, looking for shelter,
claiming that she's a princess, his mother tested her by putting a pea among the
many mattresses. The next morning the girl complained that she endured a sleepless night
and kept awake by something hard in the bed. The prince rejoices. Only a real princess would have
the sensitivity to feel a pea through such a quality of bedding. The two were married
and of course they lived happily ever after!
