    sea. There were many caves there. He told the prisoner he lived there in a cave. He asked him would he like to live with him. He said he would. So the two giants lived in the cave. They used to go out in the boat every day fishing.
    At last his foot got better. One day he allowed the giant to go out to the boat himself. He stole home to his own house and never returned.
