And out on the porch:
- Fu-fu, the Russian spirit has not been heard, the view has not been seen, and now the Russian spirit itself has come.
And Ivan Tsarevich to her:
- Oh you,baba yaga, bone leg
, meet the guest by dress, see off by mind. You would have removed my horse, you would have fed me, a good fellow, a road person, fed me, watered me and put me to bed ...
Baba Yaga did everything right - she removed the horse, and fed and watered Ivan Tsarevich, laid him on the bed and began to ask who he was, where he was from and where he was heading.
- I, grandmother, from such and such a kingdom, from such and such a state, the royal son Ivan Tsarevich. I am going for living water and rejuvenating apples to a strong hero, the girl Sineglazka ...
- Well, my dear child, I don't know if you will get good.
Wise to you, wise to get to the girl Sineglazka!
- And you, grandmother, give your head to my mighty shoulders, direct me to mind-reason.
- A lot of fellows drove by, but not a lot of politely used to say.Take, child, my horse, go to my older sister. She'd better teach me what to do.
Here Ivan Tsarevich spent the night with this old woman, gets up early in the morning, washes his face whitely. He thanks Baba Yaga for the night and rode on her horse. And this horse is even stronger than that.
Suddenly Ivan Tsarevich says:
- Stop! Dropped the glove.
And the horse replies:
- At what time you said, I have already galloped three hundred miles...
Not soon the deed is done, soon the fairy tale tells. Ivan Tsarevich rides day to evening - the sun is red until sunset. He runs into the hut on a chicken leg, about one window.
- Hut, hut, turn your back to the forest, to me in front! I do not live forever, but spend the night for one night.
Suddenly a horse neighed, and under Ivan Tsarevich the horse responded. Out on the porchBaba Yaga, old years, even older than that. She looked - her sister's horse, and a foreign rider, a fine fellow ...
Here Ivan Tsarevich politely bowed to her and asked to spend the night. Nothing to do! They don’t take lodging with them - lodging for everyone: both on foot and on horseback, and poor and rich.
Baba Yaga did the whole thing - she removed the horse, and fed and watered Ivan Tsarevich and began to ask who he was, where he was from and where he was heading.
- I, grandmother, of such and such a kingdom, such and such a state, the royal son Ivan Tsarevich. Was at your younger sister, she sent to the middle one, and the middle one sent to you. Give your head to my mighty shoulders, direct me to mind-reason, how can I get living water and rejuvenating apples from the maiden Sineglazka.
- So be it, I will help you, Ivan Tsarevich. damsel
Sineglazka, my niece, is a strong and powerful hero.
Around her kingdom there is a wall three sazhens high, a sazhen thick, at the gate of the guard - thirty heroes. They won't let you through the gate either. You should go in the middle of the night, ride my good horse. When you reach the wall - beat the horse on the sides with an unlashed whip. The horse jumps over the wall. You tie your horse and go to the garden. You will see an apple tree with rejuvenating apples, and under the apple tree there is a well. Pick three apples, but don't take any more. And scoop up a jug of twelve stigmas from the well of living water. The maiden Sineglazka will be sleeping; He will take you over the wall.
Ivan Tsarevich did not spend the night with this old woman, but sat on her good horse and rode off at night.This horse jumps, jumps over moss-swamps, sweeps rivers, lakes with its tail.
How long, how short, low, high, Ivan Tsarevich reaches the high wall in the middle of the night. At the gate the guard sleeps - thirty mighty heroes
P he urges his good horse, beats him with an unlashed whip. The horse got angry and jumped over the wall. Ivan Tsarevich got off his horse, entered the garden and saw - there was an apple tree with silver leaves, golden apples, and a well under the apple tree.Ivan Tsarevich picked three apples, but did not take any more, but scooped up a jug of twelve stigmas from the well of living water. And he wanted to see for himself, the strong, mighty hero, the maiden Sineglazka.
Ivan Tsarevich enters the tower, and there they sleep - on one side six logs - heroic girls and on the other side six, and in the middle the maiden Sineglazka scattered about, sleeping, like a strong river rapids rustle.
Ivan Tsarevich could not stand it, kissed her, kissed her, and went out ... He sat on a good horse, and the horse said to him human voice:
“I didn’t listen, you, Ivan Tsarevich, entered the tower to the maiden Sineglazka. Now I can't jump over walls.
Ivan Tsarevich beats the horse with an unlashed whip.
- Oh, you, horse, wolf's satiety, grass bag, we don't spend the night here, but lose our heads!
The horse became more angry than ever and jumped over the wall, but touched it with one horseshoe - the strings sang on the wall and the bells rang.
The maiden Sineglazka woke up and saw the theft:
- Get up, we have a big theft!
She ordered to saddle her heroic horse and rushed with twelve logs in pursuit of Ivan Tsarevich.
AT in a certain kingdom, in a certain state, there lived and there was a king, and he had three sons: the eldest was called Fedor, the second Vasily, and the youngest Ivan.
The king was very old and his eyes became weak. And he heard that far away, in a faraway kingdom, a faraway state, there is a garden with rejuvenating apples and a well with living water. If an old man eats this apple, he will become younger, and if you wash the eyes of a blind man with this water, he will see.
The tsar gathers a feast for the whole world, calls the princes and boyars to this feast and says to them:
Here the elder began to be buried for the middle one, and the middle one for the smaller one, but there was no answer from the smaller one.
Tsarevich Fedor comes out and says:
- We are reluctant to give the kingdom to the people. I will go to this long path, I will bring you, the king-father, rejuvenating apples and water, a living jug of twelve stigmas.
Fyodor Tsarevich went to the stable yard, chose for himself an untrodden horse, an unbridled bridle, took an unlashed whip, put twelve girths with a girth - not for the sake of beauty, but for the sake of strength ... Fyodor Tsarevich set off on a long path. They saw that he was mounting a horse, but they did not see in which direction he rode off ...
Fyodor Tsarevich rode close, far, low, high, rode day until evening - until the red sun set. And I reached the rosstans, up to three roads. A slab-stone lies on the rosstans, on which the inscription is written:
Fyodor Tsarevich thought: "Let's go - where to be married."
And he turned to the path where he should be married. He rode, rode, and reached the tower under the golden roof.
Then a beautiful girl runs out to meet him and says:
- The king's son, let me take you out of the saddle. Come with me to eat bread and salt and sleep and rest.
- No, beautiful girl, I don’t want bread and salt, but I can’t pass the road with sleep. I need to move forward.
As soon as Fyodor Tsarevich lay down against the wall, this girl quickly turned the bed, and he flew underground, into a deep hole ...
How long, how short, - again the king gathers a feast. He calls princes and boyars and says to them:
- Which of you guys would find a hunter to go to distant lands, to Far Far Away kingdom, in the thirtieth state, would a living jug of twelve stigmas bring me rejuvenating apples and water? I would give this rider half my kingdom.
His second son, Vasily Tsarevich, comes out and says:
- I don't want to give the kingdom to people. I will go to this long path, I will bring you, the king-father, these rejuvenating apples and water, a living jug of twelve stigmas. I will hand over to you.
Vasily Tsarevich goes to the stable yard, chooses an unridden horse, bridles an unbridled bridle, takes an unlashed whip, puts twelve girths with a girth.
Vasily Tsarevich went on the road. We saw how he sat down, but did not see in which direction he drove off ...
Here he reaches the rosstan, where the stone slab lies, and sees:
“If you go to the right, you will save yourself, you will lose your horse. You will go to the left - you will save the horse, you will lose yourself. If you go straight, you will be married.”
Thought, thought Vasily Tsarevich and decided “to go along the road, where to be married.
I reached the tower with a golden roof. A beautiful girl runs out to him and asks him to eat bread and salt and lie down to rest.
“Tsar's son, do not rush to go ahead, but hurry to do what is dear to you.”
Then a beautiful maiden took him out of the saddle and led him into the tower. She fed him, gave him drink, and put him to sleep on the bed.
As soon as Vasily Tsarevich lay down against the wall, this girl turned the bed again, and he flew underground, into a deep hole ...
And they ask:
- Who is flying?
- Vasily Tsarevich. And who is sitting?
- Tsarevich Fedor.
- Here, brother, we got it!
How long, how short, - for the third time the king gathers a feast. He calls princes and boyars and says to them:
“Which of you guys would find a hunter to go to faraway lands, to a faraway kingdom, to a faraway state, but bring me rejuvenating apples and water, a living jug with twelve stigmas?” I would give this rider half my kingdom.
Here again the elder began to be buried for the middle one, and the middle one for the smaller one, but there was no answer from the smaller one.
Ivan Tsarevich comes out and says:
“Give me, father, a blessing, from a violent head to frisky legs, to go to a faraway kingdom, to a faraway state — to look for you apples of rejuvenation and living water, and look for more of my brothers.
The king gave him a blessing. Ivan Tsarevich went to the stables' yard - to choose a horse according to his mind. Whichever horse he looks at, he trembles, on which he puts his hand, he falls down ...
Ivan Tsarevich could not choose a horse according to his mind. He's walking, hanging his head wildly. To meet him grandmother backyard.
- Hello, child, Ivan Tsarevich! Why are you walking around sad?
- How can I, grandmother, not be sad - I can’t find a horse for myself by reason.
You should have asked me a long time ago. The good horse stands in the cellar, shackled on an iron chain. You can take it - you will have a horse in mind.
Ivan Tsarevich comes to the cellar, kicked an iron slab, the slab from the cellar curled up. He went in to the good horse, the horse stood on his shoulders with his front legs. Ivan Tsarevich is standing, he won't move. The horse broke the iron chain, jumped out of the cellar and pulled Ivan Tsarevich out. And then Ivan Tsarevich curbed him with an unbridled bridle, saddled him with an unridden saddle, put on twelve girths with a girth - not for the sake of beauty, for the sake of the glory of the brave.
Ivan Tsarevich set off on a long journey. They saw that he was getting on a horse, but they didn’t see in which direction he rode off ...
He reached the Rosstani and meditated:
“I’ll go to the right - I’ll lose my horse, where can I go without a horse? I'll go straight - I'll be married. Not for that I went on a long journey. I’ll go to the left - I’ll save the horse, this road is the best for me.
And he turned to the road where you save the horse - you lose yourself. He rode long, short, low, high, over stone mountains, over green meadows. I rode from day to evening, until sunset, the sun was red. And he runs into a hut.
There is a hut on a chicken leg, with one window.
The hut turned its back to the forest, to Ivan Tsarevich in front. He went into it, and there sits a Baba Yaga, of old age. Silk tow throws, and throws threads through the beds.
- Fu, fu, - he says, - the Russian spirit has not been heard, the view has not been seen, but now the Russian spirit itself has come.
And Ivan Tsarevich to her:
- Oh, you, Baba Yaga, bone leg, if you don’t catch a bird, you tease, if you don’t recognize the young man, you blaspheme. You would have jumped up right now, but I, a good fellow, a road person, gave me a drink, fed, and gathered a bed for the night. I would lie down, you would sit at the head of the village, you would begin to ask, and I would begin to tell - whose and where.
Baba Yaga did all these things. She gave Ivan Tsarevich a drink, fed him, and put him to bed.
She sat down at the head and began to ask:
- Whose are you, road man, good fellow, you will, but from where? What land are you from? What father, mother's son?
- I, grandmother, from such and such a kingdom, from such and such a state, Ivan Tsarevich, the king's son. I am going to distant lands, distant lakes, to a distant kingdom, a distant state for living water and rejuvenating apples.
“Well, my dear child, you have a long way to go. Living water and rejuvenating apples are in the possession of the strong hero-maiden Sineglazka, she is my own niece. I don't know if you'll get good...
- A lot of good fellows drove by, but not many spoke politely. Take, child, my horse. My horse will be faster, he will take you to my middle sister, she will teach you.
Ivan Tsarevich gets up early in the morning, washes his face whitely. He thanked Baba Yaga for the night and rode on her horse.
Suddenly Ivan Tsarevich says to the horse:
- Stop! I dropped my glove.
And the horse answers him:
- At what time did you remember, I had already galloped two hundred miles ...
Ivan Tsarevich rides close or far. The day goes by until the night.
And he saw ahead of him a hut on a chicken leg, with one window.
- Hut, hut, turn your back to the forest, front to me! As I enter you, and exit.
The hut turned its back to the forest, its front to it. Suddenly you can hear the horse neighing, and the horse under Ivan Tsarevich responded.
The horses were one-staged.
Baba Yaga heard this, even older than before, and says:
Apparently, my sister came to visit me.
And out on the porch:
- Fu-fu, the Russian spirit has not been heard, the view has not been seen, and now the Russian spirit itself has come.
And Ivan Tsarevich says to her:
- Oh, you, Baba Yaga, bone leg, meet the guest by dress, see off by mind. You would have removed my horse, you would have given me, a good fellow, a road man, watered, fed and put me to bed ...
Baba Yaga did all these things - she removed the horse, and gave Ivan Tsarevich water, fed, laid him on the bed and began to ask who he was, where he was from and where he was heading.
- I, grandmother, from such and such a kingdom, from such and such a state, Ivan Tsarevich, the king's son. I am going for rejuvenating apples and living water to the strong hero-maiden Sineglazka ...
“Well, dear child, I don’t know if you will get good.
Wise to you, wise to get to the girl Sineglazka!
- And you, grandmother, give your head to my mighty shoulders, direct me to mind-reason.
- A lot of good fellows drove by, but not many spoke politely. Take my horse, child, and go to my older sister. She'd better teach me what to do.
Here Ivan Tsarevich spent the night with this old woman, gets up early in the morning, washes his face whitely. He thanked Baba Yaga for the night and rode on her horse. And this horse is even more agile than before.
Suddenly Ivan Tsarevich says:
- Stop! I dropped my glove.
And the horse answers him:
- At what time did you remember, I had already galloped three hundred miles ...
Soon the fairy tale tells, but not soon the deed is done. Ivan Tsarevich rides from day to evening - the sun is red until sunset. Runs into the hut on a chicken leg, with one window.
- Hut, hut, turn your back to the forest, front to me! I do not live forever, but only spend the night.
Suddenly a horse neighed, and the horse under Ivan Tsarevich responded. The Baba Yaga comes out onto the porch, old, even older than before. She looked - her sister's horse, and a foreign rider, a fine fellow ...
Here Ivan Tsarevich bowed politely to her and asked to spend the night. Nothing to do! They don’t take lodging with them - everyone needs a lodging for the night: both on foot and on horseback, and poor and rich.
Baba Yaga did the whole thing - she removed the horse, and gave Ivan Tsarevich a drink, fed and began to ask who he was, where he was from and where he was heading.
- I, grandmother, of such and such a kingdom, such and such a state, Ivan Tsarevich, the king's son. Was with your younger sister. She sent to the middle. And the middle one sent to you. Give your head to my mighty shoulders, direct me to the mind-reason, how can I get rejuvenating apples and living water from the maiden Sineglazka.
- So be it, I will help you, Ivan Tsarevich. The maiden Sineglazka, my niece, is a strong and powerful bogatyr-maiden. Around her kingdom is a wall three sazhens high, a sazhen thick. And at the gate of the guard - thirty heroes. They won't let you through the gate either. You have to go in the middle of the night, ride my good horse. When you reach the wall, beat the sides of the horse with an unlashed whip. The horse will jump over the wall. You tie your horse and go to the garden. There you will see an apple tree with rejuvenating apples, and under the apple tree there is a well. Pick three apples, don't take any more. And scoop up a jug of twelve stigmas from the well of living water. The maiden Sineglazka will sleep. You don’t go into her tower, but sit on a horse and beat him with a whip on the steep sides. He will take you over the wall.
Ivan Tsarevich did not spend the night with this old woman, but sat on her good horse and set off at night. This horse jumps, jumps over moss-swamps, sweeps rivers, lakes with its tail.
How long, how short, low, high, Ivan Tsarevich reaches the high wall in the middle of the night.
At the gate the guard sleeps - thirty mighty heroes. He pressed his good horse, hit him with an unlashed whip.
The horse got angry and jumped over the wall. Ivan Tsarevich got down from his horse, entered the garden and saw that there was an apple tree with silver leaves, golden apples, and a well under the apple tree.
Ivan Tsarevich plucked three apples, but did not take more. Yes, a jug of twelve stigmas scooped up living water from the well. And he wanted to see the mighty, strong, hero-maiden Sineglazka.
Ivan Tsarevich went into the tower. And there they sleep - on one side there are six bogatyr damsels-maidens and on the other side six. And in the middle, the bogatyr-maiden Sineglazka scattered about, sleeping, making noise like a strong river rapids.
Ivan Tsarevich could not resist, kissed her, kissed her and went out ...
He sat on a good horse, and the horse said to him in a human voice:
- You didn’t listen, Ivan Tsarevich, you went to the maiden Sineglazka in the tower. Now I can't jump over walls.
Ivan Tsarevich beats the horse with an unlashed whip.
- Oh, you, horse, wolf's satiety, grass bag, we don't spend the night here, but lose our heads!
The horse became more angry than ever and jumped over the wall. Yes, he touched one horseshoe about her - the strings sang on the wall and the bells rang.
The girl Sineglazka woke up and saw the theft:
“Get up everyone, we have a big theft!”
She ordered to saddle her heroic horse and rushed with twelve pieces of wood in pursuit of Ivan Tsarevich.
Tsarevich Ivan is driving at full speed, and the maiden Sineglazka is chasing after him. He reaches the elder Baba Yaga, and her horse is already bred, ready.
Ivan Tsarevich from his horse and on to this one again drove forward ... Ivan Tsarevich went out the door, and the maiden Sineglazka went through the door and asked Baba Yaga:
“Grandma, there’s a beast here, didn’t it roam?”
— No, child.
- Grandma, well done here, didn’t you pass by?
— No, child. And you drink milk from the road.
- I would have a drink, grandmother, and milk a cow for a long time.
- What are you, my child, I can handle it quickly ...
Baba Yaga went to milk a cow - milking, not in a hurry. The maiden Sineglazka drank milk and again chased after Ivan Tsarevich.
Ivan Tsarevich arrived at the middle Baba Yaga, changed his horse and drove off again. He is outside the door, and the maiden Sineglazka is at the door and asks Baba Yaga:
“Grandma, didn’t the beast roam here, didn’t the good fellow pass by?”
“No, child, there was no one. And you would have eaten pancakes out of the way.
- Yes, you will bake them for a long time.
- What are you, my child, I can quickly cope ...
Baba Yaga began to bake pancakes - she bakes, she is not in a hurry. The maiden Sineglazka ate the pancakes and again chased after Ivan Tsarevich.
He reaches the youngest Baba Yaga. Get off the horse. He sat on his heroic horse and drove again. He is at the door, the girl Sineglazka is at the door and asks the Baba Yaga if a good fellow has passed by.
“No, my child, there was no one. And you would take a steam bath out of the way.
- Yes, you will drown it for a long time.
- What are you, my child, I will quickly drown ...
Baba Yaga melted a bathhouse, made everything. The maiden Sineglazka took a steam bath, rolled around and again drove to catch up. Her horse jumps from hill to hill, sweeps rivers, lakes with her tail. Sineglazka began to overtake Ivan Tsarevich.
He sees himself being chased. Twelve heroes with the thirteenth - the girl Sineglazka - get along to run into him, take his head off his shoulders. He began to stop his horse. The maiden Sineglazka jumps on him and shouts:
“What are you, a thief, drinking from my well without asking and didn’t cover the well!”
And he answers her:
- Well, let's go three horse jumps, let's try the strength.
Here Ivan Tsarevich and the maiden Sineglazka parted for three horse jumps, took battle clubs, long spears, and sharp sabers. And they went three times. The clubs were broken, the spears-sabers were mangled - they could not knock each other off the horse. There was no need for them to ride good horses. They jumped off their horses and grabbed in a handful.
They fought from morning to evening - until the sunset of the red sun. Ivan Tsarevich turned up a frisky leg, he fell on the damp earth. The maiden Sineglazka stood on his white chest with her knee and pulled out a damask dagger - to flog his white chest.
Ivan Tsarevich and says to her:
“Don’t ruin me, maiden Sineglazka. Better take it by the white hands, lift it from the damp earth, and kiss it on the sugary lips.
Here the maiden Sineglazka lifted Ivan Tsarevich from the damp earth and kissed him on the sugary lips.
And they pitched their tents in the open field, in green meadows, in a wide expanse. They walked here for three days and three nights. Here they got engaged and exchanged rings.
The maiden Sineglazka says to Ivan Tsarevich:
- I'll go home - and you go home, but look, don't turn anywhere ... In three years, wait for me in your kingdom. They mounted their horses and rode off...
Long, short. Soon the fairy tale is told, but the deed is not soon done, - Ivan Tsarevich reaches the rosstans, up to three roads, where the slab-stone lies, and thinks:
“That's not good! I'm going home, and my brothers are missing."
And he did not listen to the maiden Sineglazka, turned onto the road where a married man should be ... And he runs into a tower under a golden roof. Here, under Ivan Tsarevich, the horse neighed, and the horses of the brothers responded. The horses were single-staged ...
Ivan Tsarevich ascended the porch, knocked with a ring - the domes on the tower staggered, the windows twisted. A beautiful girl runs out of the tower.
“Ah, Ivan Tsarevich, I have been waiting for you for a long time!” Come with me to eat bread and salt and sleep and rest.
She took him to the tower and began to regale him. Ivan Tsarevich, not so much drinking as pouring under the table, not so much eating as throwing under the table. The beautiful girl took him to the bedroom:
- Lie down, Ivan Tsarevich, sleep, rest.
And Ivan Tsarevich pushed her onto the bed, the bed quickly turned, and the girl flew underground, into a deep hole.
Ivan Tsarevich leaned over the pit and shouted:
Who is alive there?
And from the pit they answer:
- Fedor Tsarevich and Vasily Tsarevich.
Ivan Tsarevich took them out of the pit - they are black in face, they have already begun to overgrow with earth. Ivan Tsarevich washed his brothers with living water - they became the same again. They got on their horses and rode home ...
How long, how short, did they reach the rosstans. Ivan Tsarevich and says to the brothers:
- Guard my horse, and I will lie down and rest.
He lay down on the silk grass and fell into a heroic sleep. And Fedor Tsarevich to Vasily Tsarevich says:
- We will return without rejuvenating apples, without living water - there will be little honor for us, our father will send us to graze geese.
Vasily Tsarevich answers:
“Let’s lower Ivan Tsarevich into the abyss, and take these things and hand them over to our father.”
So they took out from Ivan Tsarevich's bosom rejuvenating apples and a jug of living water, and they took him and threw him into the abyss. Ivan Tsarevich flew there for three days and three nights.
Ivan Tsarevich fell on the very seaside, came to his senses and sees - only water and sky. And under the old oak by the sea, the chicks squeak - bad weather hits them.
Ivan Tsarevich took off his caftan and covered the chicks with it. And he hid himself under an oak tree.
The bad weather subsided, flies big bird Nagai. She flew in, sat down under an oak tree and asked the chicks:
- My dear children, didn’t bad weather kill you?
- Do not shout, mother, the Russian man saved us, covered us with his caftan.
Bird Nagai asks Ivan Tsarevich:
"Why are you here, dear man?"
- My brothers threw me into the abyss for rejuvenating apples and for living water.
- You saved my children, ask me what you want: is it gold, silver, precious stones.
“Nothing, Nagai-bird, I don’t need: neither gold, nor silver, nor precious stones. And can't I home side get in?
Nagai-bird answers him:
- Get me two vats of meat - twelve pounds.
Here Ivan Tsarevich shot geese and swans on the seashore. I put it in two vats. One tank placed the Nagai-bird on the left shoulder, and the other tank on the right, he sat on her back.
Nagai began to feed the bird, it rose and flies into the sky.
She flies, and he gives her yes gives ...
How long, how short they flew like that, Ivan Tsarevich fed both vats. And the Nagai bird turns around again. He took a knife, cut off a piece from his leg and gave Nagai the bird. She flies, flies and turns again. On the other leg, he cut off the meat and served. It's not far to fly. Nagai-bird turns around again. He cut the meat from his chest and gave it to her.
Then the Nagai-bird informed Ivan Tsarevich to his native side.
- Well, you fed me all the way, but you never ate anything sweeter than the last piece.
Ivan Tsarevich showed her the wounds. Nagai-bird burped, burped three pieces:
- Put it in place.
Ivan Tsarevich put the meat on the bones and grew.
“Now, Ivan Tsarevich, get off the bench, I’ll fly home.”
Nagai the bird rose up in the air, and Ivan Tsarevich went to his native side by the way.
He came to the capital and learns that Fedor Tsarevich and Vasily Tsarevich brought rejuvenating apples and living water to their father. And the king was healed: he became, as before, strong in health and sharp-sighted in his eyes.
Ivan Tsarevich did not go to his father, to his mother. And he gathered drunkards, go to the tavern and let's walk around the taverns.
At that time, far away, in a faraway state, the strong hero Sineglazka gave birth to two sons. They grow by leaps and bounds.
Soon the fairy tale is told, but the deed is not soon done - three years have passed. Sineglazka took her sons, gathered an army and went to look for Ivan Tsarevich.
She came into his kingdom. And in an open field, in a wide expanse, in green meadows, she pitched a white-lined tent. The road from the tent was covered with colored cloth. And he sends to the capital to the king to say:
“King, give me the prince.” If you don’t give it up, I’ll burn the whole kingdom, I’ll trample you, I’ll take you in full.
The tsar was frightened of such speeches and sends the eldest - Fedor Tsarevich. Fyodor Tsarevich walks through colored cloth, approaches a white-linen tent. Two boys run out of the tent:
- No, kids, this is your uncle.
"What are you going to do with him?"
- And you treat him, kids, well.
These two boys took canes here and let's whip Fyodor Tsarevich below the back. They beat him, they beat him, as soon as he carried his legs.
And Sineglazka again sends to the king:
- Give me the prince ...
More than ever, the tsar was frightened and sent to her the middle one - Vasily Tsarevich. He comes to the tent. Two boys run out of the tent:
“Mother, mother, isn’t this our father coming?”
- No, kids, this is your uncle. Treat him, kids, well.
Two boys again, let's scratch your uncle with canes. They beat him, beat him, Vasily Tsarevich barely carried his legs.
And Sineglazka sent for the third time to the tsar:
- Go, look for the third son, Ivan Tsarevich. If you don’t find it, I’ll burn the whole kingdom, trample it.
The king was even more frightened. He sends for Fyodor Tsarevich and Vasily Tsarevich, tells them to find their brother, Ivan Tsarevich. Here the brothers fell at the feet of their father and obeyed everything. How they took rejuvenating apples and living water from sleepy Ivan Tsarevich, and threw him into the abyss.
The king heard this and burst into tears. And at this time, Ivan Tsarevich himself goes to Sineglazka, and with him goes the tavern's need. They tear the cloth under their feet and throw it to the sides.
Tsarevich Ivan approaches the white linen tent. Two boys run out of it:
“Mother, mother, some drunkard is coming to us with the barn of a tavern!”
And Sineglazka to them:
- Take him by the white hands, and lead him into the tent. This is your own father. He suffered innocently for three years.
Here they took Ivan Tsarevich by the white hands and led him into the tent. Sineglazka washed him and combed his hair, changed his clothes, and put him to bed. And the goli of the tavern brought a glass each, and they went home.
The next day Sineglazka and Ivan Tsarevich arrived at the palace. A feast began here for the whole world - an honest feast and for a wedding.
Fyodor Tsarevich and Vasily Tsarevich had little honor, they drove them out of the yard - they spent the night where there was a night, where there were two, and there was nowhere to spend the third night ...
Ivan Tsarevich did not stay here, but went with Sineglazka to her maiden kingdom.
Here the fairy tale ends.

Message from a prepared student about Baba Yaga. Appeal to the reproduction of the painting by I.Ya. Bilibin "Baba Yaga" (Appendix 1).
Task: Answer the questions as you speak.
What is the meaning of "chicken legs" at Baba Yaga's hut?
Why does the hero ask Baba Yaga to feed, drink, put to bed?
Why is the entrance to the hut from the side of the forest?
The image of Baba Yaga belongs to the era of matriarchy, and much of it remains mysterious. There is no convincing explanation of the name "Yaga" yet.
The image of Baba Yaga, standing on the border of the worlds, serves as a guide that allows the hero to enter the world of the dead by performing certain rituals, and is associated with legends about the hero’s transition to the other world (the Thirtieth Kingdom). Baba Yaga belongs to two worlds at once - the world of the dead and the world of the living.
The hut of Baba Yaga “on chicken legs” is depicted as standing either in the thicket of the forest (the center of the other world), or at the edge, but then the entrance to it is from the side of the forest, i.e. from the world of death. The name "chicken legs" most likely comes from "chicken", i.e. pillars fumigated with smoke, on which the Slavs put a "hut of death" - a small log house with the ashes of the deceased inside (such funeral rite existed among the ancient Slavs as early as the 6th-9th centuries). The hero, who meets Baba Yaga's hut on the border of life and death, goes to an unknown world to get magic items or release the captive princess. Having passed the tests in the hut of Baba Yaga, a person turns out to belong to both worlds at the same time, endowed with many magical qualities, subjugates various inhabitants of the world of the dead, overcomes those inhabiting it scary monsters, wins back a magical beauty from them and becomes king.
After the presentation, the children answer questions in pairs, discuss the answers and voice them.
Work in pairs with handouts. Children receive a text about Ivan Tsarevich. A slide with paintings by V.M. Vasnetsov “Ivan Tsarevich on the Gray Wolf” and “The Battle of Ivan Tsarevich with the Serpent” appears on the board.
Ivan Tsarevich is one of the main characters of Russian folklore. How fairy tale character It appeared in the late 18th - early 19th century.
Ivan Tsarevich appears in fairy tales as a positive character, fighting evil, helping the offended and weak. Very often, at the beginning of the tale, Ivan Tsarevich is poor, lost by his parents, persecuted by enemies, unaware of his royal origin. In such tales as a reward for heroic behavior and good deeds, Ivan Tsarevich receives back his kingdom, throne, or finds his royal parents. At the end of the tale, he usually receives half the kingdom, the king's daughter as a wife, a magical or expensive horse.
Sometimes Ivan Tsarevich can also be a negative character, which is opposed to other princes or characters of simple origin, for example, Ivan the fisherman's son. In this case, Ivan Tsarevich is angry, cunning, and in various ways tries to destroy the positive heroes and take away their well-deserved reward. In the end, he is shamed and punished.
Usually Ivan Tsarevich (like Ivan the Fool) is the youngest of three sons king.
Conversation about symbolic meaning apples. (Children express their opinion about what the apple symbolizes. Then the students listen to the teacher's story and compare it with their opinion. Determine who was right and who was wrong).
Russian tradition interpreted the image and symbolism of the apple in its own way. It is known that a green apple was placed on the grave of the deceased, which was supposed to indicate that the image of the deceased was preserved in the memory of the living and remind that life on earth continues. The proverb that “an apple does not fall far from an apple tree” also took root in Russia. children follow in the footsteps of their parents, often repeating their mistakes and miscalculations.
The apple is associated not only with unsolved mysteries birth and death, but also with one of the symbols of royal power - orb, thereby emphasizing that the ruler holds the earth in his hands, i.e. rules.

D / s. Prepare an artistic retelling of "The Tale of the Belgorod Wells".
In a certain kingdom, in a certain state, there lived and was a king, and he had three sons: the eldest was called Fedor, the second Vasily, and the youngest Ivan.
The king was very old and impoverished in his eyes, but he heard that far away, in the farthest kingdom, there is a garden with rejuvenating apples and a well with living water.
The tsar gathers a feast for the whole world, calls the princes and boyars to the feast and says to them:
Who, kids, would get out of the chosen ones, get out of the hunters, travel to distant lands, to the distant kingdom, bring rejuvenating apples and living water, a jug of twelve stigmas? I would write half my kingdom to this rider.
Then the larger one began to be buried for the middle one, and the middle one for the smaller one, but there is no answer from the smaller one.
Tsarevich Fedor comes out and says:
It is reluctant for us to give the kingdom to the people. I will go to this path, I will bring you, the king-father, rejuvenating apples and living water, a jug of twelve stigmas.
Fedor Tsarevich went to the stable yard, chooses an untrodden horse, bridles an unbridled bridle, takes an unlashed whip, puts twelve girths with a girth - not for the sake of beauty, but for the sake of strength ... Fyodor Tsarevich set off on the path. They saw that he was sitting down, but they did not see in which direction he rolled away ...
He rode close, far, low, high, rode from day to evening - the sun was red until sunset. And it reaches the rosstans, up to three roads. A slab-stone lies on the rosstans, on it the inscription is written:
“You’ll go to the right to save yourself, to lose your horse. You will go to the left - to save the horse, to lose yourself. You will go straight - to be married.
Fyodor Tsarevich thought: - "Let's go - where to be married."
And he turned to the path where he should be married. He rode, rode, and reached the tower under the golden roof. Then a beautiful girl runs out and says to him:
The king's son, I will take you out of the saddle, come with me to eat bread and salt and sleep and rest.
No, girl, I don’t want bread and salt, and I can’t pass the road with sleep. I need to move forward.
Tsar's son, do not hurry to go, but hurry to do what is dear to you.
Then a beautiful maiden took him out of the saddle and led him into the tower. I fed him, gave him a drink and put him to sleep on the bed.
As soon as Fyodor Tsarevich lay down against the wall, this girl quickly turned the bed, and he flew underground, into a deep hole ...
How long, how short - the tsar again gathers a feast, calls the princes and boyars and says to them:
Here, guys, who would get out of the hunters - bring me rejuvenating apples and living water, a jug about twelve stigmas? I would write half my kingdom to this rider.
Here again, the larger one is buried for the middle one, and the middle one for the smaller one, but there is no answer from the smaller one.
The second son, Vasily Tsarevich, comes out:
Father, I do not want to give the kingdom into the wrong hands. I'll go to the track, bring these things, hand over to you.
Vasily Tsarevich goes to the stable yard, chooses an unridden horse, bridles an unbridled bridle, takes an unlashed whip, puts twelve girths with a girth.
Vasily Tsarevich went. They saw how he sat down, but they didn’t see in which direction he rolled away ... So he reaches the rosstan, where the stone slab lies, and sees:
“You’ll go to the right to save yourself, to lose your horse.
You will go to the left - to save the horse, to lose yourself. You will go straight - to be married.
Thought, thought Vasily Tsarevich and “went on the road, where to be married. I reached the tower with a golden roof. A beautiful girl runs out to him and asks him to eat bread and salt and lie down to rest.
- The king's son, do not rush to go, but hurry to do what is dear to you ...
Then she took him out of the saddle, took him to the tower, fed him, gave him drink and put him to sleep.
As soon as Vasily Tsarevich lay down against the wall, she again turned the bed, and he flew underground.
And they ask:
- Who is flying?
- Vasily Tsarevich. And who is sitting?
- Tsarevich Fedor.
- Here, bro, hit!
How long, how short - for the third time the tsar gathers a feast, calls the princes and boyars:
- Who would get out of the hunters to bring rejuvenating apples and living water jug about twelve stigmas? I would write half my kingdom to this rider.
Here again, the larger one is buried for the middle one, the middle one for the smaller one, but there is no answer from the smaller one.
Ivan Tsarevich comes out and says:
- Give me, father, blessing, from a violent head to frisky legs, to go to the thirtieth kingdom - to look for you rejuvenating apples and living water, but also to look for my brothers.
The king gave him a blessing. Ivan Tsarevich went to the stable yard - to choose a horse according to reason. Whichever horse he looks at, he trembles, on which he puts his hand - he falls down ...
Ivan Tsarevich could not choose a horse according to reason. Goes hung his wild head. To meet him grandmother backyard.
- Hello, child, Ivan Tsarevich! Why are you walking around sad?
- How can I, grandmother, not be sad - I can’t find a horse in my mind.
- You should have asked me a long time ago. The good horse is chained in the cellar, on an iron chain. You can take it - you will have a horse in mind.
Ivan Tsarevich comes to the cellar, kicked an iron slab, the slab from the cellar curled up. He jumped up to the good of the horse, the horse stood on his shoulders with his front legs. Ivan Tsarevich is standing - he will not move. The horse tore off the iron chain, jumped out of the cellar and pulled Ivan Tsarevich out. And then Ivan Tsarevich curbed him with an unbridled bridle, saddled him with an unridden saddle, put on twelve girths with a girth - not for the sake of beauty, for the sake of the valiant glory.
Ivan Tsarevich set off on his journey. They saw that he was sitting down, but they didn’t see in which direction he rolled away ... He reached the rosstan and thought:
“To the right to go - to lose a horse, - where can I go without a horse? To go straight - to be married - not for that I went on the road. To go to the left - to save the horse - this road is the best for me.
And he turned along the road where to save the horse - to lose himself. Whether he rode long, short, low, high, through green meadows, over stone mountains, he rode from day to evening - the sun is red until sunset - and runs into the hut.
There is a hut on a chicken leg, about one window.
The hut turned its back to the forest, to Ivan Tsarevich in front. He went into it, and there sits a Baba Yaga, of old age. The silk tow is tossing, and the threads are streaking through the beds.
- Fu, fu, - he says, - the Russian spirit has not been heard, the view has not been seen, but now the Russian spirit itself has come.
And Ivan Tsarevich to her:
Oh, Baba Yaga, bone leg, if you don’t catch a bird, you tease, if you don’t recognize the young man, you blaspheme. You would now jump up and me, a good fellow, a road person, fed, watered and gathered a bed for the night. I would lie down, you would sit down at the head of the bed, you would ask, and I would begin to say - whose and where.
Here the Baba Yaga did it all - she fed Ivan Tsarevich, gave him drink and laid him on the bed. She sat down at the head and began to ask:
- Whose are you, road man, good fellow, but where are you from? What land are you? What father, mother's son?
- I, grandmother, from such and such a kingdom, from such and such a state, the royal son Ivan Tsarevich. I am going to distant lands, distant lakes, to the thirtieth kingdom for living water and rejuvenating apples.
- Well, my dear child, how far you have to go: living water and rejuvenating apples - at the strong hero girl Sineglazka, she is my own niece. I don't know if you'll get good...
- A lot of fellows drove by, but not a lot of politely used to say. Take, child, my horse. My horse will be faster, he will take you to my middle sister, she will teach you.
Ivan Tsarevich gets up early in the morning, washes his face whitely. He thanks Baba Yaga for the night and rode on her horse.
Suddenly he says to the horse:
- Stop! Dropped the glove.
And the horse replies:
- At what time did you say, I have already galloped two hundred miles ...
Ivan Tsarevich rides whether it is close or far. The day goes by until the night. And he saw ahead of him a hut on a chicken leg, with one window.
Hut, hut, turn your back to the forest, front to me! As I enter you, and exit.
The hut turned its back to the forest, its front to it. Suddenly heard - the horse neighed, and the horse under Ivan Tsarevich responded.
The horses were single. Baba Yaga heard this - even older than that one - and says:
- Came to me, apparently, my sister to visit.
And out on the porch:
- Fu-fu, the Russian spirit has not been heard, the view has not been seen, and now the Russian spirit itself has come.
And Ivan Tsarevich to her:
- Oh, you, Baba Yaga, bone leg, meet the guest by dress, see off by mind. You would have removed my horse, you would have fed me, a good fellow, a road person, fed me, watered me and put me to bed ...
Baba Yaga did everything right - she removed the horse, and fed and watered Ivan Tsarevich, laid him on the bed and began to ask who he was, where he was from and where he was heading.
- I, grandmother, from such and such a kingdom, from such and such a state, the royal son Ivan Tsarevich. I am going for living water and rejuvenating apples to a strong hero, the girl Sineglazka ...
- Well, my dear child, I don't know if you will get good.
Wise to you, wise to get to the girl Sineglazka!
- And you, grandmother, give your head to my mighty shoulders, direct me to mind-reason.
- A lot of fellows drove by, but not a lot of politely used to say. Take, child, my horse, go to my older sister. She'd better teach me what to do.
Here Ivan Tsarevich spent the night with this old woman, gets up early in the morning, washes his face whitely. He thanks Baba Yaga for the night and rode on her horse. And this horse is even stronger than that.
Suddenly Ivan Tsarevich says:
- Stop! Dropped the glove.
And the horse replies:
- At what time did you say, I have already galloped three hundred miles ...
Not soon the deed is done, soon the fairy tale tells. Ivan Tsarevich rides day to evening - the sun is red until sunset. He runs into the hut on a chicken leg, about one window.
- Hut, hut, turn your back to the forest, to me in front! I do not live forever, but spend the night for one night.
Suddenly a horse neighed, and under Ivan Tsarevich the horse responded. The baba-yaga comes out onto the porch, of old years, even older than that one. She looked - her sister's horse, and a foreign rider, a fine fellow ...
Here Ivan Tsarevich politely bowed to her and asked to spend the night. Nothing to do! They don’t take lodging with them - lodging for everyone: both on foot and on horseback, and poor and rich.
Baba Yaga did the whole thing - she removed the horse, and fed and watered Ivan Tsarevich and began to ask who he was, where he was from and where he was heading.
- I, grandmother, of such and such a kingdom, such and such a state, the royal son Ivan Tsarevich. Your younger sister had it, she sent it to the middle one, and the middle one sent it to you. Give your head to my mighty shoulders, direct me to mind-reason, how can I get living water and rejuvenating apples from the maiden Sineglazka.
- So be it, I will help you, Ivan Tsarevich. damsel
Sineglazka, my niece, is a strong and powerful hero. Around her kingdom there is a wall three sazhens high, a sazhen thick, at the gate of the guard - thirty heroes. They won't let you through the gate either. You should go in the middle of the night, ride my good horse. When you reach the wall - beat the horse on the sides with an unlashed whip. The horse jumps over the wall. You tie your horse and go to the garden. You will see an apple tree with rejuvenating apples, and under the apple tree there is a well. Pick three apples, but don't take any more. And scoop up a jug of twelve stigmas from the well of living water. The maiden Sineglazka will be sleeping; He will take you over the wall.
Ivan Tsarevich did not spend the night with this old woman, but sat on her good horse and rode off at night. This horse jumps, jumps over moss-swamps, sweeps rivers, lakes with its tail.
How long, how short, low, high, Ivan Tsarevich reaches the high wall in the middle of the night. At the gate the guard sleeps - thirty mighty heroes He presses his good horse, beats him with an unlashed whip. The horse got angry and jumped over the wall. Ivan Tsarevich got off his horse, entered the garden and saw - there was an apple tree with silver leaves, golden apples, and a well under the apple tree. Ivan Tsarevich picked three apples, but did not take any more, but scooped up a jug of twelve stigmas from the well of living water. And he wanted to see for himself, the strong, mighty hero, the maiden Sineglazka.
Ivan Tsarevich enters the tower, and there they sleep - on one side six logs - heroic girls and on the other side six, and in the middle the maiden Sineglazka scattered about, sleeping, like a strong river rapids rustle.
Ivan Tsarevich could not stand it, kissed her, kissed her and left ... He sat on a good horse, and the horse said to him in a human voice:
“I didn’t listen, you, Ivan Tsarevich, entered the tower to the maiden Sineglazka. Now I can't jump over walls.
Ivan Tsarevich beats the horse with an unlashed whip.
- Oh, you, horse, wolf's satiety, grass bag, we don't spend the night here, but lose our heads!
The horse became more angry than ever and jumped over the wall, but touched it with one horseshoe - the strings sang on the wall and the bells rang.
The maiden Sineglazka woke up and saw the theft:
- Get up, we have a big theft!
She ordered to saddle her heroic horse and rushed with twelve logs in pursuit of Ivan Tsarevich.
Tsarevich Ivan is driving at full speed, and the maiden Sineglazka is chasing after him. He reaches the elder Baba Yaga, and she already has a horse bred, ready. He - from his horse and on to this one and again drove forward ... Ivan then the prince went out the door, and the maiden Sineglazka went through the door and asked Baba Yaga:
Grandma, didn't the beast roam here?
No, child.
Grandma, did the fellow pass here?
No, child. And you eat milk from the way.
I would eat, grandmother, and milk a cow for a long time.
What are you, child, alive to handle ...
Baba Yaga went to milk a cow - milking, not in a hurry. The maiden Sineglazka ate the milk and again chased after Ivan Tsarevich.
Ivan Tsarevich reaches the middle Baba Yaga, changed his horse and drove again. He is at the door, and the girl Sineglazka is at the door:
Grandma, didn’t the beast skip, didn’t the good fellow drive by?
No, child. And you would eat pancakes out of the way.
Yes, you will bake for a long time.
Baba Yaga baked pancakes - bakes, takes her time. The maiden Sineglazka ate and again chased after Ivan Tsarevich.
He reaches the youngest Baba Yaga, got off his horse, mounted his heroic horse and drove off again. He is at the door, the girl Sineglazka is at the door and asks the Baba Yaga if a good fellow has passed by.
No, child. And you would take a steam bath out of the way.
Yes, you will burn for a long time.
What are you, child, I’ll lively do ...
The Baba Yaga heated the bathhouse, prepared everything. The maiden Sineglazka took a steam bath, rolled over and again drove into the drift. Her horse jumps from hill to hill, sweeping rivers and lakes with her tail. She began to catch up with Ivan Tsarevich.
He sees a chase behind him: twelve bogatyrs with the thirteenth - the girl Sineglazka - get along to run into him, take his head off his shoulders. He began to stop the horse, the girl Sineglazka jumped up and shouted to him:
What are you, a thief, without asking from my well drank and the well did not cover!
Well, let's go three horse jumps, let's try the strength.
Here Ivan Tsarevich and the maiden Sineglazka rode three horse-leaps, took battle clubs, long spears, sharp sabers. And they came together three times, they broke their clubs, they slashed their spears and sabers - they could not knock each other off their horses. There was no need for them to ride good horses, they jumped off their horses and grabbed in a handful.
They fought from morning to evening - the sun is red until sunset. Ivan Tsarevich's frisky leg turned up, he fell on the damp ground. The maiden Sineglazka knelt on his white chest and pulled out a damask dagger - flog his white chest. Ivan Tsarevich and says to her:
Do not ruin me, maiden Sineglazka, better take my white hands, lift me from the damp earth, kiss me on the sugary lips.
Here the maiden Sineglazka raised Ivan Tsarevich from the damp earth and kissed him on the sugary lips. And they pitched their tent in an open field, in a wide expanse, in green meadows. Here they walked for three days and three nights. Here they got engaged and exchanged rings.
The maiden Sineglazka says to him:
I'll go home - and you go home, but don't turn off anywhere ... In three years, wait for me in your kingdom.
They got on their horses and parted ... How long, how short, how long is the job done, soon the fairy tale tells, - Ivan Tsarevich reaches the rosstans, up to three roads, where the slab-stone, and thinks:
“That's not good! I’m going home, and my brothers are missing.”
And he did not listen to the girl Sineglazka, he turned onto the road where a married man would be ... And he runs into a tower under a golden roof. Here, under Ivan Tsarevich, the horse neighed, and the brothers of the horses responded. The horses were single-staged ...
Ivan Tsarevich went up onto the porch, banged his ring - the domes on the tower staggered, the windows twisted. A beautiful girl runs out.
Ah, Ivan Tsarevich, I have been waiting for you for a long time! Come with me to eat bread and salt and sleep and rest.
She took him to the tower and began to regale him. Ivan Tsarevich, not so much eats as throws under the table, not so much drinks as pours under the table. The beautiful girl took him to the bedroom:
Lie down, Ivan Tsarevich, sleep, rest.
And Ivan Tsarevich pushed her onto the bed, quickly turned the bed, the girl flew underground, into a deep hole.
Ivan Tsarevich leaned over the pit and shouted:
Who is alive there?
And from the pit they answer:
Fedor Tsarevich and Vasily Tsarevich.
He took them out of the pit - they are black in face, they have already begun to overgrow with earth. Ivan Tsarevich washed the brothers with living water - they became the same again.
They got on their horses and rode off ... How long, how short, they reached the rosstans. Ivan Tsarevich and says to the brothers:
Guard my horse, and I will lie down and rest.
He lay down on the silk grass and fell into a heroic sleep. And Fedor Tsarevich says to Vasily Tsarevich:
We will return without living water, without rejuvenating apples - there will be little honor for us, our father will send us geese to graze.
Vasily Tsarevich answers:
Let's lower Ivan Tsarevich into the abyss, and we'll take these things and give them into the hands of our father.
So they took out rejuvenating apples and a jug of living water from his bosom, and they took him and threw him into the abyss. Ivan Tsarevich flew there for three days and three nights.
Ivan Tsarevich fell on the very seaside, came to his senses and sees - only the sky and water, and under the old oak by the sea the chicks squeak - the weather beats them.
Ivan Tsarevich took off his caftan and covered the chicks. and he hid himself under an oak tree.
The weather has calmed down, the big bird Nagai is flying. She flew in, sat down under the oak and asked the chicks:
My dear children, did the bad weather kill you?
Do not shout, mother, a Russian man saved us, covered us with his caftan.
Bird Nagai asks Ivan Tsarevich:
Why are you here, dear man?
My brothers threw me into the abyss for rejuvenating apples and for living water.
You saved my children, ask me what you want: is it gold, silver, precious stone.
Nothing, Nagai-bird, I do not need: no gold, no silver, no precious stone. Can't I get back to my hometown?
Nagai-bird answers him:
Get me two vats - twelve pounds - of meat.
So Ivan Tsarevich shot geese and swans on the seashore, put it in two vats, put one vat on the Nagai bird on the right shoulder, and the other vat on the left, he sat on her back. Nagai began to feed the bird, it rose and flies into the sky.
She flies, and he gives her and gives ... How long, how short they flew like that, Ivan Tsarevich fed both vats. And the Nagai bird turns around again. He took a knife, cut off a piece from his leg and gave Nagai the bird. She flies, flies and turns again. He cut off the meat from the other leg and served it. It's not far to fly. Nagai-bird turns around again. He cut the meat from his chest and gave it to her.
Then the Nagai-bird informed Ivan Tsarevich to his native side.
You fed me well all the way, but you never ate sweeter than the last piece.
Ivan Tsarevich shows her the wounds. Nagai-bird burped, burped three pieces:
Put it in place.
Ivan Tsarevich put - meat and adhered to the bones.
Now get off me, Ivan Tsarevich, I'll fly home.
Nagai the bird rose up in the air, and Ivan Tsarevich went along the road to his native side.
He came to the capital and finds out that Fedor Tsarevich and Vasily Tsarevich brought living water and rejuvenating apples to their father, and the Tsar was healed: he still became strong in health and sharp-eyed.
Ivan Tsarevich did not go to his father, to his mother, but he gathered drunkards, tavern fouls and let's walk around the taverns.
At that time, distant lands, in the distant kingdom, the strong hero Sineglazka gave birth to two sons. They grow by leaps and bounds. Soon the fairy tale is told, the deed is not soon done - three years have passed. Sineglazka took her sons, gathered an army and went to look for Ivan Tsarevich.
She came to his kingdom and in an open field, in a wide expanse, on green meadows, she pitched a white-lined tent. She covered the road from the tent with colored cloth. And he sends to the capital to the king to say:
King, give the prince. If you don’t give it back, I’ll trample the whole kingdom, I’ll burn it, I’ll take you in full.
The tsar was frightened and sent the eldest - Fedoratsarevich. Fyodor Tsarevich walks through colored cloth, approaches a white-linen tent. Two boys run out.
No, kids, it's your uncle.
What would you like to do with him?
And you, kids, treat him well.
Then these two boys took their canes and let's whip Fyodor Tsarevich below the back. They beat him, he beat him, he barely took his legs off.
And Sineglazka again sends to the king:
Give the prince...
The tsar was frightened of the forest and sent the middle one - Vasily Tsarevich. He comes to the tent. Two boys run out.
Mother, mother, isn't this our father coming?
No, kids, it's your uncle. Feed him well.
Two boys again, let's scratch the uncle with canes. They beat, they beat, Vasily Tsarevich barely carried his legs.
And Sineglazka sent for the third time to the tsar:
Go, look for the third son, Ivan Tsarevich. If you don’t find it, I’ll trample the whole kingdom, I’ll burn it.
The tsar was even more frightened, sends for Fedor Tsarevich and Vasily Tsarevich, orders them to find their brother, Ivan Tsarevich. Then the brothers fell at their father's feet and confessed everything: they took living water and rejuvenating apples from sleepy Ivan Tsarevich, and threw him into the abyss.
The king heard this and burst into tears. And at that time, Ivan Tsarevich himself goes to Sineglazka, and with him goes the barn of the tavern. They tear the cloth under their feet and throw it to the sides.
He approaches the white linen tent. Two boys run out.
Mother, mother, some drunkard is coming to us with the barn of a tavern!
And Sineglazka to them:
Take him by the white hands, lead him into the tent. This is your own father. He suffered innocently for three years.
Then they took Ivan Tsarevich by the white hands and led him into the tent. Sineglazka washed him and combed his hair, changed his clothes and put him to bed. And she brought a glass of goli from the tavern, and they went home.
The next day Sineglazka and Ivan Tsarevich arrived at the palace. Then a feast began for the whole world - an honest feast and for a wedding. Fedor Tsarevich and Vasily Tsarevich had little honor, they drove them out of the courtyard - to spend the night where there is a night, where there are two, and there is no place to spend the third night ...
Ivan Tsarevich did not stay here, but went with Sineglazka to her maiden kingdom.
Here the fairy tale ends.
