Unfortunately, soon after her child was born, the Queen died. A year later the King married again.

The new Queen was very beautiful but much too proud of her own beauty. She could not bear to think that anyone else might be more beautiful.

The Queen had a magic looking-glass which hung on the wall. Often she stood in front of it and, gazing at her own reflection, asked this question,
"Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Among the ladies in this land,
Who is the fairest of them all?"

The mirror always replied,
"Thou, O Queen, art the fairest of them all!"

The Queen was always content when she heard this reply for she knew that the magic mirror could speak nothing but the truth.
