ST. WENCESLAS 

During the pagan era prince Bořivoj and his wife Ludmila are baptised by the apostle Methodius. The son Vratislav meets the temperamental Drahomíra on a hunt whom he soon introduces to everyone at the castle as his wife. After some time a son is born to the couple, Wenceslas. After many years, when Wenceslas returns from Budeč where he was brought up, Skeř's daughter Radmila falls in love with him. After Vratislav's sudden death Drahomíra takes rule and, longing for more power, declares war against Radslav, the prince of Zličans. Wenceslas ends the war by challenging Radslav to a duel and he wins. Drahomíra then conspires with Skeř against him. They first kill the pious Ludmila. After her murder at Tetín, however, Drahomíra has to leave the castle. Sker joins with Wenceslas's brother Boleslav in a conspiracy against him. After the war against the Teutons which ends with an offer of conciliation, Boleslav invites Wenceslas to his estate for the consecration of a new chapel. During the early hours Wenceslas is murdered by his brother and his companions. Drahomíra begs the deceased Wenceslas for forgiveness. Boleslav, too, falls on his knees and recognises Wenceslas's majesty.
