Prince Charming
There was a prince who was besotted with his own beauty. If any traveler came to the palace he would ask him: "Have you ever seen anyone as handsome
as me?" No one ever had.
One day an obsequious traveler said to him: "I don't think there could be anyone in the whole world as good-looking as you. I don't think even a god could be as handsome."
This made the prince very happy and he went around telling everyone that he was more handsome than any god.
One day he had two visitors who identified themselves as gods.
