You are such a useless boy! Now what will we eat?
You think anybody wants to beg! Now go outside and gather some food.
Father, I do not want to beg.
Once upon a time, during the rule of a king, two infants were born in the same town, at the same time on the same day. One was born in a poor house while the other was born in the palace. The child born in the palace was named Prince Edward and the one in the poverty-stricken house was named Tom Canty - The Pauper.
No matter where you were born, you can always choose to be whatever you want! If you have to choose to be between a pauper or a greedy, dishonest person what will you choose to be?
Exactly and now you know you can choose to be anyone you want!
Professor I do not want to beg. Why was I born in a pauper's house, why not the palace?
If the only other option is to a greedy, dishonest man, then I will chose to be a pauper and stay honest.
Prince Edward lived a luxurious life while Tom Canty had too beg to fill his empty stomach.
What are you doing here?
Tom Canty was being rebuked by his father since he had not earned good amount of money. Tom hated begging but was compelled to beg by his very own father.
I am Tom Canty. I am a pauper
Hello! I am Prince Edward and its very nice to meet you! Who are you?
The only person who gave importance to Tom was Professor Andrews who taught in a nearby school. He was really encouraging and used to help him a lot!
He was wandering around when he reached the palace. He was surprised by its enormity and tried to get a closer look. Sadly, he was caught!
As soon as the guards threw him out, Prince Edward came running out and helped him up. He was frustrated about the behavior of the guards.
