    jumped out of the fort. The fairies turned theirselves (themselves) into hounds and went after her. So she jumped into a hole outside the fort and the hounds ran round the country. Then she went into the fort and told the man to put on his clothes so she turned him into a bull so he went away up home. He had a couple of dogs & when he went home his dogs attacked him so the magic could not go off him until two o' clock & he did not go looking for gold ever after.
