Synopsis
While traveling to a distant kingdom to marry a prince, an enchanted princess loses her magic powers and is obliged to exchange identities with her evil maidservant. Arriving at their destination, the prince believes the maidservant to be his betrothed. The false princess puts the real princess to work as a goose tender and has the princess' talking horse decapitated so that it will not reveal the deception. The king learns that the goose maiden talks to the horse's head, now mounted in a gateway, discovers the false princess' treachery, and has his son marry the true princess.
