Lesson 3 The Prince and the Judge

Guidance

To correct mistakes immediately you realize them is the best choice. 知错能改，善莫大焉。

Henry V was as brave a King as ever sat on the English throne, and gained ( 获得) one of the greatest victories ever won by English soldiers.

But when he was Prince of Wales, he was a very wild and riotous ( 放荡的) youth. He mixed with low companions, who led him to do many base ( 不光彩的) and foolish acts, quite unworthy of a Prince. 

Once one of his friends was tried for some offense before the Lord Chief Justice. He was found guilty and was ordered to be sent to prison.

When the Prince, who was in the court, heard the sentence, he fell into a great rage. He spoke very rudely to the Judge, and ordered him to let his friend off.

“Prison,” he said, “is no place for a Prince’s friend. I am Prince of Wales, and I forbid you to send this man to prison, like a common thief.”

“Prince or no Prince,” replied the Judge, “you have no right to speak thus to the King’s Judge. I have sworn ( 宣誓) to do justice; and justice I shall do.”

¬ The Prince, getting more angry, then tried to set the prisoner free himself. But the Judge told him it was none of his business, and ordered him to cease from such riot in court.

The calmness with which the Judge spoke made the Prince even more angry; and he rushed up to the bench, and struck the Judge a severe blow on the face!

For this, the Judge ordered the officers of the court to seize the Prince, and take him to prison with his friend. “I do this,” he said, “not because he has done me harm, but because he has insulted ( 损害) the honor of the law.”

Turning again to the Prince, he added, “Young man, you will one day be King. How can you expect your subjects to obey you then, if you yourself thus disobey the King’s laws now?”

On hearing this, the Prince was very much ashamed of himself. He had not a word to say, but, laying down his sword, he bowed to the Judge, and walked quietly off to prison.

When the King (Henry IV) heard of this incident, he said, “Happy is the King that has a Judge who so fearlessly enforces the laws, and a son who knows how to submit to them.”

Shortly after this Prince had been crowned King, many of his people came to pay their respects to him. Some of those who knew how wild he had been as a young man, were anxious to know how he would act as King.

Among the rest came some of his former riotous companions, expecting, no doubt, to be made at once the King’s chief favorite.

But they were mistaken. The King told them that he had given up his foolish ways, and advised them to do the same. Nor would he let them come about his person, until they had shown that they had learned better manners.

¬ The Judge also came, not knowing how he would be received. He feared that he might lose his office; but he did not care, as he had only done his duty.

He was also mistaken. ¬ e King received him very kindly and thanked him for the sharp lesson he had given him. He told him still to keep the office which he had so worthily filled.

“If ever,” said the King, “I have a son who shall behave as I did to you, may I have a Judge as bold and faithful as you to correct him!”
