folk. rags (The king had a beautiful girl locked in his castle. He lavished her with gifts, but dressed her in the most horrible rags. Every night, she would stare out the dungeon window, waiting for a brave knight to rescue her. But every knight who rode up would take one look at her and ride away in disgust. "How can they resist my beauty?" the girl complained. "The king was right," the guard said, laughing. "No knight will rescue a damsel in this dress." (Reader's Digest) ART Vancouver)
