St George and the Dragon
4
St George was a knight and travelled for many
miles by land and sea until he came to a country
called Libya.
5
Here he met a hermit who told him that the land
was in great distress as it was being ravaged by
a scary dragon
6
Every day the dragon demanded a young girl to eat
and now the only girl who was left was the Kings
daughter.
7
The hermit told St George that unless they could
find a knight to slay the dragon the princess
would be sacrificed the next day.
8
When St George heard this story he was determined
to save the princess. So that night he slept in
the hermits hut.
9
Early the next day he set off to the valley where
the dragon lived. On the way there he saw the
princess being taken to the dragon so he stopped
her and told her to go back to the palace.
10
As soon as the dragon saw him it rushed from its
cave, roaring with a sound louder than thunder.
Its head was immense and its tail fifty feet
long. But St. George was not afraid. He struck
the monster with his spear, hoping he would wound
it.
11
The dragons scales were too hard and his spear
fell into a thousand pieces. The dragon went to
bite him with his poisonous teeth but St George
had fallen under a magic orange tree which
protected him.
12
He then hit the dragon with his sword but the
dragon poured his poison on him and St Georges
armour split into two.
13
Once more St George went to the magic orange tree
and refreshed he attacked the dragon again.
14
This time he struck the dragon under his wing
where there were no scales and the dragon fell
dead at his feet.
15
Everyone in the land was very pleased that the
dragon was dead. The King was so pleased that he
offered St George his daughters hand in marriage.
16
News of St Georges bravery spread throughout the
lands and he soon became patron saint of many
countries including England.
17
St Georges day is celebrated in England on April
23rd every year and we remember his defeat of the
evil dragon. St Georges flag makes up part of
the Union Jack.
