  1. (continued from previous page)
    old house in the bog where an old woman lived alone.
    As the hare was about to enter through the window of the old house the hound snapped her by the leg.
    The man pursued them immediately and when he came up to the window, instead of the hare it was the old woman he saw inside crying and her side was torn and bleeding.
