	David Mamet Society: The Frog Prince
		After the Prince has determined that the Milkmaid will be the one to kiss him and free him from his curse, he discovers to his chagrin that she is already betrothed to a poor laborer.
		The Prince, it appears, is doomed to remain a frog, since, for some reason that remains unexplained in the play, he has to declare in advance whom he "elects" to bestow the kiss that will free him.
		The Milkmaid and the frog, however, establish a close friendship which is convincingly communicated to the audience by their jointly enduring seasonal changes; when the Milkmaid leaves the country to join her banished fiancé, she gives the frog a sweet farewell peck.

		The frog's skin was dry and cracked from his long journey from the forest well and his eyes were dull with dust.
		The water quickly refreshed the frog and he was soon glistening bright as an emerald as he sat on the edge of the dish and spoke with the king.
		She said that I would remain a frog until a beautiful princess would share her meal with me and take me into her bed and kiss me. You have kept your promise and I am once again the man I used to be.

	The Frog Prince (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		The Frog Prince tells about a contemplative frog's love for an intelligent and independent princess, how she came to love him in spite of herself, and how her steadfast belief in him helped him become who he truly was.
		She insists that this is because he is truly a prince, and so being a frog is not his true self.
		In Chapter XXXVI, Mitchell says that a major requirement for frogs becoming princes is patience: "an enormous patience, since the interval between the being-thrown and the actual impact may last for a decade or more." Yet in The Frog Prince the transformation is instantaneous.

	The Frog Prince
		The frog, who believed in the promise of the king's daughter, dipped his head under the water, and sank down to the bottom, where he quickly found the ball, and seizing it in his mouth, carried it to the surface and threw it on the grass.
		But the young princess would not listen to the frog's croaking; she got to the house as fast as she could, and soon forgot the poor frog, who was obliged to return to the fountain, and remain there.
		Before it took place, however, the prince told them his history, how he had been changed into a frog by a wicked witch, and that she has condemded him to live in the fountains until a king's daughter should come and release him.

	The Frog King
		But the frog when he had received this promise, put his head into the water and sank down; and in a short while came swimming up again with the ball in his mouth, and threw it on the grass.
		The king's daughter began to cry, for she was afraid of the cold frog which she did not like to touch, and which was now to sleep in her pretty, clean little bed.
		So she took hold of the frog with two fingers, carried him upstairs, and put him in a corner, but when she was in bed he crept to her and said, "I am tired, I want to sleep as well as you, lift me up or I will tell your father."

		She was afraid of the cold frog and did not dare to even touch him, and yet he was supposed to lie next to her in her bed; she began to cry and didn't want to at all.
		The frog sprang back into the water, and when she drew another glassful it was so clear that the sun glistened in it with joy.
		The frog sent his servants into the house, and they immediately went to the bedroom and dragged the screaming maiden from beneath her bed, then carried her to the carriage.

		The frog took the bundle of rice, and hanging it from his shoulder, went to an Indi (wild date) tree, scraped the leaf off a date spike (the mid-rib of the leaf), and strung the rice on it.
		Then the Prince said: "The King of our city has made a proclamation by beat of tom-toms, that he will give half his kingdom and an elephant's load of gold to the person who brings him the Jeweled Golden Cock that is at the Rakshasi's house.
		After he became a frog, the clothes that he was wearing, and the horse, and the Jeweled Golden Cock vanished.

		Not until the final spread, when the princess and her prince are married, does a fuller, lighter palette emerge--as if the burdens of the princess's unkept promise and the prince's unhappy enchantment have finally been lifted.
		Her story line is standard to a point--princess loses ball, frog returns it and moves in with the princess--but this time it is the princess' growing fondness for the frog and the fact that she allows him to sleep on her pillow three times that breaks the enchantment, transforming him into a handsome prince.
		When the frog asks to be placed on the princess' knee--"Well, the princess did not like the idea of that at all, because the frog was wet, and a frog." Without rhythm or cadence, the story seems to plod along, falling dully on listeners' ears.

	The Frog Prince - www.ezboard.com
		The young woman by eventually breaking the spell (and in a sense bringing the Prince back to life--as a human being) underscores her fertile capacity as a woman and bride...and it suggests the creative unity of marriage.
		The Frog Prince is one story that I read to people just to astonish them with the sheer nonsensical sensicality (not a word, surely) of fairy tales.
		Then maybe it isn't the frog, but the authority of the old man that she throws against the wall--such an act of rejection simultaneously frees her from following the negative aspect of her father's wishes...while replacing the old man in her life with a more suitable younger male in marriage.

	The Frog Prince Continued
		After her tirade, the prince has an idea and runs off into the forest to find a witch who will turn him back into a frog.
		Because he is clever, the prince recognizes that this is a poisoned apple and he again runs further into the forest.
		The wife doesn't even seem to have the same sort of power that she has in the original story where she was the one who bestowed the kiss that turned the frog back into a prince destroying the curse.

		The princess forgot all about the frog, but the next day, as she was eating dinner with her family, she heard something come crawling splish-splash up the marble steps of the castle.

		The researchers were surprised to find that the frog embryos express the inserted DNA in all of their cells, or, if the researcher chooses, in all cells of the tissues targeted for expression.
		Transgenic mouse embryos, in contrast, often express the transgenic DNA only in some cells of the desired tissues and then have to be bred over several months to yield a homogeneously expressing mouse line.
		The transgenic frogs should give a big boost to researchers interested in the earliest embryonic stages of the life cycle.

	In Search of The Frog Prince
		And I don't use the term "toad" to refer to their looks --- they could be the most handsome "toad" on the planet and if I don't end up standing next to Prince Charming at the altar, they're still a "toad" in my book.
		I can assure you if I never knew there was such thing as a "prince," I wouldn't have spent my whole life holding out for one.
		Which brings me to this: is it wrong to hold out for a "prince," a prince who sparks something in you you've never felt before, or is it better to just settle for a decent, hard-working "toad" who splashes water on any spark you might've hoped for when he hops into your life?
