The king and queen of a small nation have a beautiful daughter. The king and queen of a nearby country have a handsome son. In order to create an alliance between the two countries, the kings and queens meet to discuss a plan to have the handsome prince marry the beautiful princess.
The marriage ceremony was followed by a huge feast to celebrate the wedding. During the feast, the princess’ father saw the newlyweds slip away from the banquet. He was worried that the prince and princess might take to each other, so he told his most trusted servant to follow the couple to the bedroom and eavesdrop on the new bride and groom. Then report back with any information.
When the servant returned to the king, he told him, “First the princess told the prince, ‘I offer you my honor.’ The prince replied, ‘I honor your offer.’ And it was like that all night long: honor, offer, honor, offer.”
