Once upon a time in a faraway land, a young prince lived in a shining castle. Although he had everything his heart desired, the prince was spoiled, selfish and unkind. But then, one winter’s night, an old beggar woman came to the castle and offered him a single rose in return for shelter from the bitter cold. Repulsed by her haggard appearance, the prince sneered at the gift and turns the old woman away, but she warned him not to be deceived by appearances for beauty is found within, and when he dismissed her again, the old woman’s ugliness melted away to reveal a beautiful enchantress. 
很久以前，在一座金碧辉煌的城堡里，住着一位年轻的王子。 虽然王子拥有了内心所渴望的一切，但是他还是很骄纵、刻薄、自私。 一个寒冷的冬夜，一个老乞妇来到城堡，她将一支玫瑰送给王子，以此作为躲避严寒的报答。看到老乞妇丑陋的面容，王子拒绝了她的请求，并要赶她走，但是老乞妇告诫王子不要被外表所迷惑，内在美才是真正的美丽。当王子再次赶她走时，老乞妇突然变了，变成了一个美丽的女巫。
