  1. A man found a young woman on the Strand wearing a cloak. Took her home, threw the cloak up in the garret and married her. Lived together for some time. One day someone went up in the garret looking for something and seeing the fine cloak threw it down into the kitchen. As soon as the young woman saw it, she grabbed it, put it on hastily and ran out into the sea again.
