  1. (continued from previous page)
    and he was covered with blood. The prince saw a little light far away. He went as far as the light and found that it came from a little house. He went in and saw an old woman inside.
    When the hound saw her he rushed at her because he knew that she was the hare. She begged the man to let her alone and she said that she would give him a pot of gold. She gave him her wand and told him to strike the big black rock that was outside. But when he got the wand he turned her into a stone. He went out and found the pot of gold. Then he went home and lived happily after that.
