And they fell on his neck and kissed him, and brought him into the palace and clothed him in fair raiment, and set the crown upon his head, and the sceptre in his hand, and over the city that stood by the river he ruled, and was its lord. Much justice and mercy did he show to all, and the evil magician he banished, and to the woodcutter and his wife he sent many rich gifts, and to their children he gave high honour. Nor would he suffer any to be cruel to bird or beast, but taught love and loving-kindness and charity, and to the poor he gave bread, and to the naked he gave raiment, and there was peace and plenty in the land. Yet ruled he not long: so great had been his suffering and so bitter the fire of his testing that after the space of three years he died. And he who came after him ruled evilly. 去书内

    As the Star-Child grows older, he becomes more and more obsessed with his beauty and despises anything that is not as beautiful as himself. One day, he encounters an old beggar woman who asks him for help. Instead of showing kindness, the Star-Child mocks and insults her. As a punishment for his cruelty, the beggar woman curses him and turns him into a hideous creature. The Star-Child is then forced to wander through the world, facing rejection and ridicule from everyone he meets. He learns the hard way that beauty is not the most important thing in life and that true beauty comes from within. Despite his transformation, the Star-Child remains arrogant and refuses to change his ways. Eventually, the Star-Child comes across a group of children who are playing by a river. He sees a little girl drowning and, despite his grotesque appearance, he jumps into the water to save her. In that moment, the curse is broken, and the Star-Child is transformed back into his original form.
