1894ⓘOriginally published in French as <a href="http://books.google.com/books?id=aNI5AAAAcAAJ&pg=PR10#v=onepage&q&f=false">Le Prince Arc-en-ciel</a> in <i>Nouveau contes de fées</i> (1718 per <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairer-than-a-Fairy_(Mailly)">Wikipedia entry for story</a>). An English translation was published in 1894 as <a href="http://www.mythfolklore.net/andrewlang/029.htm">"Fairer-Than-A-Fairy"</a> by Andrew Lang in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Lang's_Fairy_Books#Yellow_Fairy_Book_.281894.29">The Yellow Fairy Book</a>. The story in <a href="https:///www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/title.cgi?341121">The Book of Fairies</a> by Michael Hague is the Lang version, but is credited to Charlotte-Rose Caumont de la Force by mistake. Both tales concern a princess named Fairer-than-a-Fairy & as Lang did not credit any author & titled the story the same as Mlle. de la Force's, a mix-up is understandable.
