The Lady and The Tiger

In the short story “The Lady and The Tiger” by Frank Stockton, Stockton tells a story of a semi-barbaric king with a beautiful young daughter in love with a “lower” class man. When the king finds out that this man has fallen in love with his daughter he sends him to the King's arena and gives the young man a choice pick door 1 or door 2. Behind one door is a ferocious tiger, and in the other is the loveliest maiden in all the king's court. Will the young man choose door #1 or door #2? I guess that you'll have to read to find out.
