This is not the most common form of fairy tale to contain the father who attempts to marry his daughter. "Allerleirauh", "The King Who Wished to Marry His Daughter", and others of Aarne-Thompson type 510B are found more frequently. However, this motif was taken up in chivalric romance exclusively in tales such as "The Girl Without Hands"; no romance includes the Cinderella-like ending of three balls that are the characteristic conclusion of the persecuted heroine. The oldest such retelling appears in ""Vitae Duorum Offarum"", naming the king Offa; the king himself appears to be historical, but the details of his kingdom are inaccurate. Other romances that use the plotline of this fairy tale include "Emaré", "Mai and Beaflor", and ""La Belle Helene de Constantinople"".
