Young Rasalu lived on, far from the light of day, for eleven long years, growing tall and strong, yet contented to remain playing with his colt, and talking to his parrot; but when the twelfth year began, the lad's heart leapt up with desire for change, and he loved to listen to the sounds of life which came to him in his palace-prison from the outside world.

Who acts: Young Rasalu, twelfth year, heart, life · What happens: live on, grow, content, remain, play, talk · To what, where: light, Rasalu, palace prison, day
