The Enchanted Horse

0:00:21.996,0:00:23.417
New Year's Day in Persia

0:00:23.517,0:00:26.334
was the most celebrated day[br]of the year.

0:00:26.432,0:00:28.449
Wonderful shows were prepared

0:00:28.451,0:00:30.449
to entertain the King[br]and the Prince.

0:00:30.552,0:00:32.823
At the end of the program,

0:00:32.922,0:00:34.859
a lone figure stood before the King

0:00:34.939,0:00:36.836
with a beautiful horse.

0:00:36.935,0:00:38.480
Your majesty, I beg thee,

0:00:38.572,0:00:40.671
look upon this wondrous animal.

0:00:40.811,0:00:41.488
It is not real,

0:00:41.588,0:00:43.265
but an ingenious machine

0:00:43.349,0:00:45.163
that will carry me anywhere I wish

0:00:45.263,0:00:47.559
just by turning a peg.

0:00:47.681,0:00:50.253
If true, it is indeed a wonderful animal,

0:00:50.354,0:00:51.830
what is the price?

0:00:51.931,0:00:53.454
It is not for sale, Sire,

0:00:53.527,0:00:54.465
but I would exchange it

0:00:54.548,0:00:56.122
for a portion of your kingdom.

0:00:56.207,0:00:58.239
Well, for such a trade,

0:00:58.422,0:01:00.057
I must know more about this horse.

0:01:00.139,0:01:01.373
My son, Prince Prama,

0:01:01.477,0:01:02.932
will test the animal for me.

0:01:03.015,0:01:04.929
The owner started to[br]show the Prince

0:01:05.012,0:01:06.286
how to control the horse,

0:01:06.374,0:01:08.601
but before he could tell him all,

0:01:08.605,0:01:10.657
Prince Prama turned the peg,

0:01:10.742,0:01:11.975
and away he flew.

0:01:12.075,0:01:13.913
He doesn't know how to[br]bring it back!

0:01:13.997,0:01:15.830
It's a trick to kidnap the Prince,

0:01:15.932,0:01:17.027
throw this man in jail

0:01:17.107,0:01:18.484
until my son returns.

0:01:19.283,0:01:21.221
As the horses owner was taken away,

0:01:21.303,0:01:23.395
the King scanned the skies

0:01:23.397,0:01:24.955
for the flying prince.

0:01:24.956,0:01:26.812
But he was out of sight.

0:01:26.913,0:01:28.287
High above the clouds

0:01:28.291,0:01:29.746
flew the enchanted horse

0:01:29.756,0:01:31.302
with the frightened prince.

0:01:31.406,0:01:33.359
He traveled hundreds of miles,

0:01:33.462,0:01:35.716
but he couldn't control the animal.

0:01:35.820,0:01:37.372
He twisted the peg,

0:01:37.374,0:01:39.230
but the horse continued

0:01:39.334,0:01:42.106
to fly upward and onward.

0:01:42.207,0:01:44.148
At last, he found a small knob

0:01:44.222,0:01:45.558
behind the animal's ear.

0:01:45.661,0:01:46.795
He gave it a turn,

0:01:46.978,0:01:49.352
and the enchanted horse[br]started to descend.

0:01:49.451,0:01:51.368
As he came closer to earth,

0:01:51.487,0:01:54.743
the Prince saw he was in a strange kingdom.

0:01:55.001,0:01:57.298
I will be in danger if I am found,

0:01:57.401,0:01:59.515
but I can't control the horse.

0:01:59.537,0:02:01.630
The amazing animal carried[br]Prince Prama

0:02:01.730,0:02:03.167
toward a palace courtyard.

0:02:03.250,0:02:05.223
After I land, I'll turn the peg,

0:02:05.304,0:02:07.618
and maybe it will fly away again,

0:02:07.700,0:02:09.978
perhaps right back to my own country.

0:02:10.059,0:02:13.051
So intent was the Prince[br]on the controls,

0:02:13.152,0:02:14.986
that he didn't watch the archway

0:02:14.990,0:02:17.642
through which the horse flew.

0:02:17.723,0:02:19.340
He was knocked off the horse,

0:02:19.341,0:02:21.278
into a courtyard.

0:02:21.399,0:02:22.255
No one saw him.

0:02:22.274,0:02:23.790
And while everyone crowded

0:02:23.795,0:02:25.251
about the mysterious horse,

0:02:25.353,0:02:27.504
Prince Prama hid in a room.

0:02:27.509,0:02:29.242
After studying the horse,

0:02:29.325,0:02:31.399
the King gave out an order.

0:02:31.482,0:02:33.756
This is a most unusual animal.

0:02:33.860,0:02:35.332
I shall give it as a gift

0:02:35.357,0:02:36.649
to Princess Serena.

0:02:36.749,0:02:39.045
Perhaps then, she will be my bride.

0:02:39.146,0:02:40.743
Take the animal to the stable

0:02:40.745,0:02:42.140
until I'm ready to give it to her.

0:02:42.220,0:02:44.536
Prince Prama could hear the King's orders,

0:02:44.540,0:02:46.273
and now he realized

0:02:46.377,0:02:48.509
his chance of escaping was gone.

0:02:49.107,0:02:51.406
Then, he heard someone sobbing.

0:02:52.062,0:02:53.341
He discovered that he was in

0:02:53.343,0:02:55.178
the room of Princess Serena.

0:02:55.181,0:02:57.134
She was the most beautiful girl

0:02:57.217,0:02:58.692
he had ever seen.

0:02:58.713,0:03:00.070
She looked up, and saw

0:03:00.151,0:03:01.747
the Prince staring at her.

0:03:01.849,0:03:03.064
Who are you?

0:03:03.184,0:03:04.642
I'm Prince Prama.

0:03:04.741,0:03:06.238
I come from far away.

0:03:06.321,0:03:07.616
Don't let them know I'm here.

0:03:07.636,0:03:10.192
Oh, did my father send you

0:03:10.274,0:03:11.848
to rescue me from King Agmir?

0:03:11.852,0:03:14.127
No, but perhaps I could help.

0:03:14.226,0:03:16.075
Tell me how you came to this place.

0:03:16.532,0:03:18.111
Princess Serena then told[br]Prince Prama

0:03:18.113,0:03:19.688
the story of how she was captured

0:03:19.787,0:03:21.644
by the powerful King Agmir.

0:03:21.647,0:03:24.660
She must marry him[br]or be put to death.

0:03:24.740,0:03:26.496
I have an idea.

0:03:26.601,0:03:28.573
If you pretend to be ill,

0:03:28.574,0:03:30.049
the King will have to postpone

0:03:30.129,0:03:32.667
any decision, until you are well.

0:03:32.692,0:03:34.503
I'll hide out in the city,

0:03:34.603,0:03:37.158
and return when the time is right.

0:03:37.161,0:03:38.895
The Princess agreed, and she acted

0:03:39.177,0:03:40.990
as if she were in a trance.

0:03:40.994,0:03:44.105
And soon, the whole palace[br]was alarmed.

0:03:44.109,0:03:45.103
Word got to the King

0:03:45.185,0:03:46.722
about her illness.

0:03:46.803,0:03:48.820
Send for the best doctors[br]in the kingdom.

0:03:48.917,0:03:50.395
Each doctor who came,

0:03:50.475,0:03:52.212
tried to cure the young girl,

0:03:52.333,0:03:54.249
and each failed.

0:03:54.308,0:03:56.146
Kind Agmir sent out a call

0:03:56.246,0:03:58.321
to physicians from other lands.

0:03:58.341,0:04:00.018
One day, a strange doctor

0:04:00.022,0:04:01.536
came to the palace.

0:04:01.635,0:04:03.151
I can cure the princess,

0:04:03.156,0:04:06.047
but I must attend to her alone.

0:04:06.071,0:04:07.645
When the doctor was alone,

0:04:07.744,0:04:09.121
in the sick girl's room,

0:04:09.124,0:04:10.741
he spoke to her.

0:04:10.844,0:04:12.777
Princess Serena, arise,

0:04:12.860,0:04:15.072
for it is time for us to leave.

0:04:15.211,0:04:17.407
Prince Prama, it is you?

0:04:17.506,0:04:19.364
Yes Serena, but we must

0:04:19.428,0:04:21.222
play the game for a while yet.

0:04:21.225,0:04:23.060
Now we will see the King.

0:04:23.437,0:04:26.764
Sire, you see she is almost[br]cured already.

0:04:26.878,0:04:28.539
Now, some special,

0:04:28.639,0:04:30.127
unusual gift from you

0:04:30.411,0:04:32.562
may complete the treatment.

0:04:32.606,0:04:33.699
How fortunate.

0:04:33.719,0:04:36.135
I have been saving a most[br]unique horse

0:04:36.140,0:04:37.792
to give to the Princess.

0:04:37.796,0:04:38.969
So the enchanted horse

0:04:39.033,0:04:41.028
was brought to the palace.

0:04:41.029,0:04:42.564
It's beautiful,

0:04:42.565,0:04:44.142
may I sit in the saddle?

0:04:44.244,0:04:46.599
Of course my dear, It's yours.

0:04:46.756,0:04:47.716
Prince Prama helped

0:04:47.799,0:04:49.652
Princess Serena up on the horse.

0:04:49.753,0:04:51.109
Then he turned to the king.

0:04:51.194,0:04:54.044
You see Sire, she is cured.

0:04:54.177,0:04:55.642
Now, for my fee.

0:04:55.682,0:04:57.459
Of course, good doctor.

0:04:57.462,0:04:59.097
What is your wish?

0:04:59.196,0:05:01.114
I wish the Princess myself!

0:05:01.234,0:05:02.710
He jumped behind Serena.

0:05:02.732,0:05:04.645
Never, she is mine!

0:05:04.647,0:05:06.384
Guards, seize him!

0:05:06.386,0:05:08.219
But the guards gaped in wonder

0:05:08.239,0:05:10.417
as the horse rose from the floor

0:05:10.520,0:05:12.513
and soared away.

0:05:14.051,0:05:15.667
Out over the fields and mountains,

0:05:15.747,0:05:17.683
the Prince and Princess flew.

0:05:18.343,0:05:19.461
After many hours,

0:05:19.544,0:05:20.817
Prince Prama looked below,

0:05:20.837,0:05:23.056
and saw the palace of his father.

0:05:23.159,0:05:24.534
The enchanted horse

0:05:24.634,0:05:26.450
had brought them home.

0:05:26.550,0:05:27.347
The King was delighted

0:05:27.430,0:05:28.805
to see his lost son,

0:05:28.905,0:05:31.082
and welcomed the Princess.

0:05:31.100,0:05:32.697
Prince Prama told his father

0:05:32.797,0:05:33.995
that Serena had consented

0:05:34.079,0:05:35.293
to be his bride.

0:05:35.393,0:05:36.690
The happy king released

0:05:36.774,0:05:37.727
the owner of the horse,

0:05:37.811,0:05:39.765
and granted him a part of the kingdom,

0:05:39.769,0:05:42.261
in exchange for the animal.

0:05:42.364,0:05:43.638
Later, when Prince Prama

0:05:43.719,0:05:44.736
and Princess Serena

0:05:44.818,0:05:45.455
were married,

0:05:45.538,0:05:46.814
the King gave them

0:05:46.897,0:05:47.832
the mechanical animal

0:05:47.835,0:05:49.548
as a wedding gift.

0:05:49.630,0:05:51.226
The young people rode away,

0:05:51.329,0:05:54.041
to have many more wonderful adventures

0:05:54.164,0:05:58.114
with the enchanted horse.
