Prince and the Pauper

The Prince and Tom are mistaken for each other because

• they try on each other's clothes
• they each pretend to be the other boy
• Tom steals the seal from the Prince
• the Prince says they should pretend to be brothers

The Prince puts the golden Seal of England

• into a pocket of Tom's clothes
• on the floor beside his boots
• on a chair, in plain sight
• into a piece of armor hanging on the wall

Hertford believes the Prince has gone mad rather than believe Tom because

• an impostor NOT claiming to be a prince seems ridiculous to him
• Tom is very convincing at playing the Prince
• Hertford is afraid the King will be angry if he finds Tom there
• all the lords know that the real Prince is gone

Tom says, "Then I have no hope!" when he meets the King because

• the King seems angry and upset
• Tom does not recognize the King
• Tom thinks the King will have him killed
• the lords already know Tom is not the Prince

What illness do both the King and John Canty believe afflicts their sons?

• forgetfulness
• a terrible cold
• fear of death
• madness

Miles is kind to the Prince because he

• expects a reward
• knows that the Prince needs a friend
• wants a partner to help him steal
• knows that the Prince really is the Prince

When Miles thinks, "He plays the part to a marvel!" he 

• is amazed that this "thief" plays a prince so well
• thinks the boy might really be the Prince
• wonder if the boy has taken acting lessons
• decides to stop pretending to believe the boy

Miles helps the Prince escape the constable

• to make some money for himself
• so that the Prince won't need to beg for food
• by running faster than the constable
• because he knows that the Prince is innocent

No one searches for the Prince because

• the lords think that Tom is the Prince
• everyone thinks the Prince has become a thief
• Edward is not the Prince anymore
• the lords do not want the Prince to be King

During his stay in prison, the Prince 

• finds out that his father the King has died
• discovers that Tome has already been crowned King
• realizes that many of the laws in his country are unjust
• decides that more people need to be in prison
