Plenty of youths and knight tried to get a hand of duchess, but no one could achieve it. The years have gone and Margharett was older. One day the prince of neighbour's castle asked for a girl's hand. He was an old, ugly man, but father agreed to the prince's proposition. The princess was desperate.
