NEXT RIDDLE:

A young man tried to elope with a princess, but the king found out and offered him a sporting chance. The king would put two slips of paper in a box, one marked 'DEATH', the other marked 'PRINCESS.' To decide his fate, the young man was to be blindfolded and choose one paper. The young man knew the king would mark both papers 'DEATH', but he managed to win the princess despite this. HOW did he do it?
