content

Three sisters sit by the window and tell each other what they would do if the tsar married them. The first would host a wedding feast for all people, the second would dress everyone up. The third and youngest, however, says: "I would not give the tsar money and property, but a son with strength and courage."

The tsar, who overheard this conversation, takes the youngest as his wife. He employed the other two as a court cook and a weaver. Envious of their youngest sister, the two submit and come to the Tsar's court.

Some time later the tsar has to go to war. His wife tells him in a letter that she has given birth to a son. The tsar's reply letter is intercepted by the sisters and mother-in-law and changed so that the wife and son are to be put into a barrel and given to the sea. The two are then thrown into the sea.

You are washed up on the beach of a bare island. There the now grown son saves the life of a swan. This swan is an enchanted princess. She creates a beautiful city for mother and son, the inhabitants of which make him Prince Gwidon. The swan also helps Gwidon to see his father unrecognized in the form of an insect.

Some time later, the tsar comes to this city - against the wishes of the sisters - and recognizes his wife and son.
