Princess Elean was deaf to the
words of the brave soldiers who told
her it was useless to try to find the
Prince, that no one had found the way
to enter the land of the Ogre. Il shall
find him, was all she would say.
All night they rode and At break of
day they reached the mountain, but
though they searched all that day no
trace did they find of the lost Prince.
