    So the Giant said he'd do the same too. So he took the knife and supped himself up and he fell on the floor and died. So the Tailor got a man and they dragged him out and buried him. He went back to the other man and he gave him £20 and he kept him from that after and he lived happy and comfortable for many a year.
