Goldfish swam in the bay, the moon shone from the sky, and high towers stood on the mountains, and knights in their steel armor walked in them. Cypress trees grow there, and mermaids sing songs to a wonderful girl with golden hair, whose name is Truth. - Well, that's great, - said the Black Prince, - I'll go for the Truth. - To go does not mean to get there yet, - said the golden beetle. - Many went, but no one has yet come to Pravda and has not returned back.
