Part 4/10:
The story continues with the chambermaid's betrayal—stealing the princess’s horse, clothes, and identity—and her deception at the royal court. She masquerades as a princess, showing how women can be driven by superficial beauty and the longing for power. Meanwhile, the genuine princess, disguised as a humble goose girl, demonstrates the virtues of loyalty, humility, and patience.
The narrative highlights that female traits—such as ambition and deceit—are deeply rooted, going back to the biblical Garden of Eden. The story also underscores the importance of virtue, patience, and humility, qualities that the real princess exemplifies by refusing revenge and remaining true to her integrity.
