"oh, very badly! ” said she. "i have scarcely closed my eyes all night. heaven only knows what was in the bed, but i was lying on something hard, so that i am black and blue all over my body. it’s horrible! ” now they knew that she was a real princess because she had felt the pea right through the twenty mattresses and the twenty eider-down beds. nobody but a real princess could be as sensitive as that. so the prince took her for his wife, for now he knew that he had a real princess; and the pea was put in the museum, where it may still be seen, if no one has stolen it. there, that is a true story. which quotation from the passage encompasses the climax of the story? “then [the queen] took twenty mattresses and laid them on the pea.” “in the morning she was asked how she had slept.” “‘oh, very badly! ’ said she. ‘i have scarcely closed my eyes all night.’” “so the prince took her for his wife, for now he knew that he had a real princess.”
