Read the passage from "Rumpelstiltskin."
Once there was a miller who was poor, but who had a beautiful daughter. Now it happened that he had to speak to the King, and in order to make himself appear important he said to him, "I have a daughter who can spin straw into gold."
The King said to the miller, "That is an art which pleases me well. If your daughter is as clever as you say, bring her tomorrow to my palace, and I will try what she can do."
How does the miller's boast to the King lead to his daughter's promise to Rumpelstiltskin?
