    (continued from previous page)
    The Dane's son was looking out for him and when he saw him he ran out to meet him.
    He asked him did he bring them.
    The Irish-man told him that he got them and the Dane's son said to him to give them to him and not to his father because his father was blind and when he would shave himself he would get back his sight and no one would stand him.
    So the Irish-man gave them to him and went in to his father.
    The old Dane asked him did he get them and the man said he did not because he was afraid of the cat.
    Though the Dane did not get them he payed him for his labour.
