[00:06.32]Then one night
[00:07.63]An unexpected intruder arrived the castle
[00:10.92]Seeking shelter from the bitter storm
[00:13.42]As a gift,she offered the prince a single rose
[00:25.30]Repulsed by her haggard appearance
[00:27.39]The prince turned the woman away
[00:30.15]But she warned him not to be deceived by appearances
[00:36.41]For beauty is found within
[00:46.49]When he dismissed her again
[00:48.20]The old woman's ugliness melted away
[00:52.65]To reveal a beautiful enchantress
[01:04.82]The prince begged for forgiveness
[01:07.62]But it was too late
[01:10.87]For she had seen that there was no love in his heart
[01:20.30]As punishment, she transformed him into a hideous beast
[01:26.42]And placed a powerful spell on the castle
[01:29.41]And all who lived there
[01:36.39]As days fled into years
[01:39.40]The prince and his servants were forgotten by the world
[01:43.14]For the enchantress had erased all memory of them
[01:45.42]From the minds of the people they loved
[01:49.38]But the rose she had offered was truly an enchanted rose
[01:53.30]If he could learn to love another
[01:56.60]And earn her love in return by the time the last petal fell
[02:00.16]The spell would be broken
[02:03.00]If not, he would be doomed to remain a beast for all time
[02:10.23]As the years passed
[02:11.56]He fell into despair and lost all hope
[02:14.65]For who could ever learn
[02:16.53]To love a beast
