Mathias, king of Hungary and the cupid judge - take 1

The tale was told from 1480 on, from village to village, people to people, and about a hundred years ago, Benedek collected and published it in a book, thus, when I was 7 and my mother bought me my first book, Hungarian folk tales, it arrived to me.

Fast, it became my favourite. After almost 70 years, I try to tell it now farther, in English.

This was told, after I wrote it down , changed, translated, but without looking in my notebook. I just cut two minutes, repetitions from it, to make it 7 instead of more then 9 minutes.
