    (continued from previous page)
    When she struck the stone the king's son, daughter and wife and their three horses came up. Then he told the witch to go up on top of the highest tower in Galway. He went back to the King of Italy. The king made a great feast for him. He remained about three years with the king. When he returned to Galway the witch was melted in dust.
