    loads of timber and make a great fire.
    When all the timber was drawn a great fire was lighted. Then they said that one of the five men should sit on the fire until it was quenched.
    The man that shivered on a fine day jumped into it, and when he came out of it he said to the queen if he was any longer in it he would be frozen with the cold.
    When all the tasks were done the queen gave the princess to the prince to be his wife. After that they were married and they lived happy together.
