    began to roar till all the birds in the wood flew away with fear but the horse let him sling on until he made his way to his master's house.
    When the master saw his old and faithful servant he was sad and he said
    "Thou shall stay in thy stable and will be taken care of." The poor horse had plenty to eat and it lived many a year afterwards.
