    11-14) This again resembles fairy tales such as The Princess and the Frog or Beauty and the Beast, where an animal or a beast can only be transformed back into a human being by means of an act of love: “often the restoration to human form is effected by the lover, a motif common to the animal bride/animal groom cycle of tales” (Hixon 68-69). Further, the motif of disenchantment by a kiss allows room for a hero: Kemp Owyne. Since no other man can save Isabel, he has to go on a journey to save the girl; if he does not come to her rescue himself, she will remain a beast forever. Mostly following Donald Haase's description of a fairy tale hero, he “leaves home, [...] goes through trials, performs a task, and returns home having gained some form of wealth” (1: 332): he hears of the enchanted woman and leaves the town “[w]here he lived, far beyond the sea” (“Kemp Owyne” ll. 20) to rescue her.
