text_original: The runner stooped down and buckled on his second leg, and then he was ready, and he and the Princess set out. The Princess flew like a bird, but the runner ran like the wind. He was out of sight in a twinkling, and had filled his pitcher and started home again before the Princess was half way to the fountain. The runner sat down to rest a bit. He was very sleepy and he thought he would just take a little nap before going the rest of the way.
