I will summon all the eagles of the air together , and order them to catch the mare and bring her to you . ' And with these words the King of the Eagles flew away . Towards evening the Prince heard a mighty rushing sound in the air , and when he looked up he saw thousands of eagles driving the mare before them . They sank at his feet on to the ground and gave the mare over to him . Then the Prince rode home to the old Mother Dragon , who was full of wonder when she saw him , and said , ` You have succeeded to-day in looking after my mare , and as a reward you shall come to my ball to-night . ' She gave him at the same time a cloak made of copper , and led him to a big room where several young he-dragons and she-dragons were dancing together . Here , too , was the Flower Queen 's beautiful daughter . Her dress was woven out of the most lovely flowers in the world , and her complexion was like lilies and roses . As the Prince was dancing with her he managed to whisper in her ear , ' I have come to set you free ! ' Then the beautiful girl said to him , ` If you succeed in bringing the mare back safely the third day , ask the Mother Dragon to give you a foal of the mare as a reward . ' The ball came to an end at midnight , and early next morning the Prince again led the Mother Dragon 's mare out into the meadow . But again she vanished before his eyes . Then he took out his little bell and rang it twice . In a moment the King of the Foxes stood before him and said : ' I know already what you want , and will summon all the foxes of the world together to find the mare who has hidden herself in a hill . ' With these words the King of the Foxes disappeared , and in the evening many thousand foxes brought the mare to the Prince . Then he rode home to the Mother-Dragon , from whom he received this time a cloak made of silver , and again she led him to the ball-room . The Flower Queen 's daughter was delighted to see him safe and sound , and when they were dancing together she whispered in his ear : ` If you succeed again to-morrow , wait for me with the foal in the meadow . After the ball we will fly away together . ' On the third day the Prince led the mare to the meadow again ; but once more she vanished before his eyes . Then the Prince took out his little bell and rang it three times .
In a XXXXX the King of the Fishes appeared , and said to him : ' I know quite well what you want me to do , and I will summon all the fishes of the sea together , and tell them to bring you back the mare , who is hiding herself in a river . '
