  1. (continued from previous page)
    He was taken from the road and placed on a height overlooking the road. When he recovered from the shock, he came back to the road again. Once again he was hoisted in the air and taken off the road. Each time he returned he was taken off again.
    This continued for several hours. Suddenly the sky became bright and clear again. The man found his way back to the road and continued his journey homewards not much the worse for night's adventure.
