Many years ago there lived in England
a wise and good king whose name was Alfred. No other man ever did so much for his country as he did; and people now, all over the world, speak of him as Alfred the Great.
In those days a king did not have
a very easy life. There was war almost all the time, and no one else could lead his army into battle so well as he could.
And so, between ruling and fighting, he had a busy time of it indeed.
King Alfred was very willing to watch
the cakes, but he had far greater things to think about. How was he going to get his army together again?
And how was he going to drive the fierce Danes out of the land? He forgot his hunger; he forgot the cakes; he forgot that he was in the woodcutter's hut. His mind was busy making plans
for tomorrow.
