A young man left Spain for Australia to seek his fortune and left his sweetheart to prepare for his return. It took a number of years, but he finally earned enough money to buy a large tract of land and build a castle for his princess waiting for him in Spain. He sailed back to Spain to collect his bride, only to discover she had given up on him and married someone else. He was heartbroken, but his intended's younger sister Margarhita was so kind, he married her and brought her back to Australia, where he spent the rest of his life building her a kingdom surrounded by beauty.
