Oh, if there was such a person in the world who never deceives anyone, I would find him.

She lives far, far away from here, on the other side of the sea, in an emerald bay, and all around are mountains. I was there, okay there. Goldfish swam in the bay, the moon shone from the sky, and there were high towers 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 Pravda. “Well, that’s great,” said the Black Prince, “I’ll go for the Truth.” “Going doesn’t mean getting there,” said the golden beetle. - Many have traveled, but no one has yet gotten to Pravda and returned back.
