Vasily Zhukovsky

One day, King Yeremei decides to go on a long hike in order to consider all his areas and compile their register. A well appears on his way home, but as soon as the sovereign bent over him, he was seized by the underwater king Chudo-Yudo and demanded an unusual ransom for his release — that which is in the state of Yeremei, but which he does not know about. The tsar is forced to agree to these conditions, because he thinks that each blade of grass was taken into account in the inventory — he still does not suspect that in his absence the Queen gave birth to him an heir.

The cat sits in the street dreaming. A group of three mice run out of the hole and boldly go to the cat. They tease him and grab his tail, but the cat seems completely absorbed in his dreams and does not notice them at all.
