After going up a long flight of stairs, the princess found a room with an old woman

spinning with a spindle. The young lady had never seen one before and was very
curious!
The princess went in and asked, "What are you doing, old lady?"
"I'm spinning a spindle. Come nearer and you'll be able to do it. I'll show you how,"
said the evil witch.
Soon after, the lady companions found the young princess lying on the floor.
When they saw the spindle, they immediately understood what had happened.
"Oh, no! She has pricked herself! The young princess has pricked herself and
will now sleep for one hundred years!" they cried.
The king ordered the princess to be taken to the best room in the palace and
sent his messengers to find the youngest fairy. When the youngest fairy came, she
waved her magic wand and everybody who accompanied the princess immediately
fell asleep, too.
The years went by. Nobody remembered the princess and the curse anymore,
until, one day, a young prince decided to climb up the tallest tree and see what the
abandoned palace was hiding. There he saw the princess and fell in love with her.
The prince went into the palace. He thought the sleeping princess was so
beautiful that he knelt next to her bed to kiss her cheek. Magically, the "Sleeping
Beauty" and the whole palace awoke.
The following year, the prince asked the princess to marry him. Eventually,
they became the happiest couple in the kingdom and lived happily ever after.
