The Happy Prince

Oscar Wilde

High above the city, on a tall column, stands the statue of the Happy Prince. He is covered with thin leaves of fine gold, for eyes he has two bright sapphires, and a large red ruby glows on his sword-hilt. Though he is called "Happy," the Prince can see all the misery and poverty of his city from his pedestal. With the help of a little swallow, he begins to give away his precious jewels and gold to those in need. Oscar Wilde’s "The Happy Prince" is a hauntingly beautiful story about the nobility of self-sacrifice and the idea that "the most precious things in the world cannot be seen with the eyes."
