And married they were then and there upon the river bank , and went home to the prince 's palace , where , when the story was told , they were welcomed by the old rajah , the prince 's father , and the remainder of the day was given over to feasting and rejoicing . But when the banquet was over , the bride told her husband that now , on the threshold of their married life , she had more to relate of her adventures than he had given her the opportunity to tell as yet ; and then , without hiding anything , she informed him of all that happened to her from the time she had stolen out to visit the wicked jogi . In the morning the prince called his chief wazir and ordered him to shut up in the chest in which the princess had been found a great monkey that lived chained up in the palace , and to take the chest back to the river and set it afloat once more and watch what became of it . So the monkey was caught and put into the chest , and some of the prince 's servants took it down to the river and pushed it off into the water . Then they followed secretly a long way off to see what became of it . Meanwhile the jogi 's two pupils watched and watched for the chest until they were nearly tired of watching , and were beginning to wonder whether the jogi was right after all , when on the second day they spied the great chest coming floating on the river , slowly bobbing and turning in the tide ; and instantly a great joy and exultation seized them , for they thought that here indeed was further proof of the wonderful wisdom of their master . With some difficulty they secured the chest , and carried it back as swiftly and secretly as possible to the jogi 's house . As soon as they brought in the chest , the jogi , who had been getting very cross and impatient , told them to put it down , and to go outside whilst he opened the magic chest . ` And even if you hear cries and sounds , however alarming , you must on no account enter , ' said the jogi , walking over to a closet where lay the silken cord that was to strangle the princess . And the two pupils did as they were told , and went outside and shut close all the doors . Presently they heard a great outcry within and the jogi 's voice crying aloud for help ; but they dared not enter , for had they not been told that whatever the noise , they must not come in ? So they sat outside , waiting and wondering ; and at last all grew still and quiet , and remained so for such a long time that they determined to enter and see if all was well . No sooner had they opened the door leading into the courtyard than they were nearly upset by a huge monkey that came leaping straight to the doorway and escaped past them into the open fields . Then they stepped into the room , and there they saw the jogi 's body lying torn to pieces on the threshold of his dwelling ! Very soon the story spread , as stories will , and reached the ears of the princess and her husband , and when she knew that her enemy was dead she made her peace with her father . From Major Campbell , Feroshepore . The Heart of a Monkey A long time ago a little town made up of a collection of low huts stood in a tiny green valley at the foot of a cliff . Of course the people had taken great care to build their houses out of reach of the highest tide which might be driven on shore by a west wind , but on the very edge of the town there had sprung up a tree so large that half its boughs hung over the huts and the other half over the deep sea right under the cliff , where sharks loved to come and splash in the clear water . The branches of the tree itself were laden with fruit , and every day at sunrise a big grey monkey might have been seen sitting in the topmost branches having his breakfast , and chattering to himself with delight . After he had eaten all the fruit on the town side of the tree the monkey swung himself along the branches to the part which hung over the water .
While he was looking out for a nice shady place where he might perch comfortably he noticed a shark XXXXX him from below with greedy eyes .
