00:00New Year's Day in Persia was the most celebrated day of the year.
00:27All the shows were prepared to entertain the king and the prince.
00:31At the end of the program, a lone figure stood before the king with a beautiful horse.
00:37Your Majesty, I beg thee, look upon this wondrous animal.
00:41It is not real, but an ingenious machine that will carry me anywhere I wish, just by turning a peg.
00:47Well, if true, it is indeed a wonderful animal. What is the price?
00:52It is not for sale, sire, but I would exchange it for a portion of your kingdom.
00:56Well, for such a trade, I must know more about this horse.
01:00My son, Prince Prama, will test the animal for me.
01:03The owner started to show the prince how to control the horse.
01:06But before he could tell him all, Prince Prama turned the peg and away he flew.
01:12He doesn't know how to bring it back.
01:14It's a trick to kidnap the prince. Throw this man in jail until my son returns.
01:19As the horse's owner was taken away, the king scanned the skies for the flying prince.
01:25But he was out of sight.
01:27High above the clouds flew the enchanted horse with the frightened prince.
01:31He traveled hundreds of miles, but he couldn't control the animal.
01:36He twisted the peg, but the horse continued to fly upward and onward.
01:42At last he found a small knob behind the animal's ear.
01:46He gave it a turn and the enchanted horse started to descend.
01:50As he came closer to earth, the prince saw he was in a strange kingdom.
01:55I will be in danger if I'm found, but I can't control the horse.
02:00The amazing animal carried Prince Prama toward a palace courtyard.
02:04After I land, I'll turn the peg and maybe it will fly away again.
02:08Perhaps right back to my own country.
02:11So intent was the prince on the controls that he didn't watch the archway through which the horse flew.
02:18He was knocked off the horse into a courtyard.
02:21No one saw him.
02:23And while everyone crowded about the mysterious horse, Prince Prama hid in a room.
02:28After studying the horse, the king gave out an order.
02:32This is a most unusual animal.
02:34I shall give it as a gift to Princess Serena.
02:37Perhaps then she'll be my bride.
02:40Take the animal to the stable until I'm ready to give it to her.
02:43Prince Prama could hear the king's orders and now he realized his chance of escaping was gone.
02:49Then he heard someone sob.
02:52He discovered that he was in the room of Princess Serena.
02:56She was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen.
02:59She looked up and saw the prince staring at her.
03:02Who are you?
03:03I'm Prince Prama.
03:05I come from far away. Don't let them know I'm here.
03:08Oh, did my father send you to rescue me from King Agmir?
03:12No, but perhaps I can help.
03:14Tell me how you came to this place.
03:16Princess Serena then told Prince Prama the story of how she was captured by the powerful King Agmir.
03:22She must marry him or be put to death.
03:25I have an idea.
03:27If you pretend to be ill, the king will have to postpone any decision until you're well.
03:33I'll hide out in the city and return when the time is right.
03:37The princess agreed and she acted as if she were in a trance.
03:41And soon the whole palace was alarmed.
03:44Word got to the king about her illness.
03:46Send for the best doctors in the kingdom.
03:49Each doctor who came tried to cure the young girl and each failed.
03:54King Agmir sent out a call to physicians from other lands.
03:58One day a strange doctor came to the palace.
04:01I can cure the princess, but I must attend her alone.
04:06When the doctor was alone in the sick girl's room, he spoke to her.
04:11Princess Serena, arise, for it is time for us to leave.
04:15Prince Prama, it is you?
04:17Yes, Serena, but we must play the game for a while yet.
04:21Now we will see the king.
04:23Sire, you see she is almost cured already.
04:26Though some special unusual gift from you may complete the treatment.
04:32How fortunate. I have been saving a most unique horse to give to the princess.
04:38So the enchanted horse was brought to the palace.
04:41It's beautiful. May I sit in the saddle?
04:44Of course, my dear, it's yours.
04:47Prince Prama held Princess Serena up on the horse.
04:50Then he turned to the king.
04:52You see, sire, she is cured. Now for my fee.
04:56Of course, good doctor. What is your wish?
04:59I wish the princess myself.
05:01He jumped behind Serena.
05:03Never. She is mine. Guards, seize him.
05:06But the guards gaped in wonder as the horse rose from the floor and soared away.
05:14Out over the fields and mountains, the prince and princess flew.
05:18After many hours, Prince Prama looked below and saw the palace of his father.
05:23The enchanted horse had brought them home.
05:26The king was delighted to see his lost son and welcomed the princess.
05:31Prince Prama told his father that Serena had consented to be his bride.
05:35The happy king released the owner of the horse
05:38and granted him a part of the kingdom in exchange for the animal.
05:42Later, when Prince Prama and Princess Serena were married,
05:46the king gave them the mechanical animal as a wedding gift.
05:50The young people rode away to have many more wonderful adventures with the enchanted horse.
