Legend about the Golden Duck

Once upon a time, Lutek the shoemaker heard the story of the Golden Duck hiding in the cellars of Ostrogski Castle. The brave boy managed to find the duck, who gave him one hundred ducats and , promised to make him rich under one condition: he had to spend everything in one day and not share it with anybody. Unable to keep his promise, however, the shoemaker helped a tramp and the Golden Duck, who turned to be a princess, took all his riches away. Thus, Lutek  understood that money held no value when it could not be shared. Nobody has again seen the Golden Duck, the  fountain in front of Ostrogski Palace being the only reminder of its existence.
