It was Easter and a great king decided that he wanted
to throw a huge Easter party and invite all the nobles from all the lands near
and far.
He sent word to all the other kings, and dukes, and barons, and
chevaliers to come to his party and to bring with them their traditional Easter
dishes so that they could all celebrate together.
On the evening of the party, the nobles from lands near and far
came bringing sweet Easter breads, smoked hams, delicious pies, fancy tortes,
flans dripping with syrup, delicate chocolates, fluffy souffle, and all sorts
wonderful things to eat.
That was except for one lone vassal. His squire laid out
the most humble-looking foods, squares of Matzoh, gefilte fish, horseradish,
and cholent.
The king stood up, frowning at the cold fish balls and flatbread
sitting among the beautiful dainties brought by the other nobles.
Then the king asked, “Can anyone tell me why this knight is
different from all the other knights?”
