Story
English Wikisource has original text related to this article:
Zeyer's dramatic poem is a love story, combining classical fairy-tale motifs with mythological references. Radúz and Mahulena, from feuding kingdoms, fall in love, but have to face various challenges, including the sorcery of Queen Runa. As well as Slovak myths and fairy tales, the story also draws from the Indian drama Shakuntala by the poet Kalidasa.
