Hi, All!
>From "Beauty and the Beast"
-----Beginning of the citation-----
....
Beast was disappeared, and she saw, at her feet, one of the loveliest
princes that eye ever beheld; who returned her thanks for having put an
end to the charm, under which he had so long resembled a Beast. Though
this prince was worthy of all her attention, she could not forbear
asking where Beast was.
"You see him at your feet, said the prince. A wicked fairy had condemned
me to remain under that shape until a beautiful virgin should consent to
marry me. The fairy likewise enjoined me to conceal my understanding.
There was only you in the world generous enough to be won by the
goodness of my temper, and in offering you my crown I can't discharge
the obligations I have to you."
----- The end of the citation -----
What does it mean - "The fairy likewise enjoined me to conceal my
understanding"?
Bye, All!
Alexander Koryagin
