    They were surprised to see him well and they told the king that their brother was a wicked man. Then the king told the boy to bring all the wolves of his kingdom to a certain hill, and if he failed he was to be hung. The boy went out into the fields and he met the wolf whom he cured. the wolf told him that he would bring the wolves to the hill. The king came to the hill and the boy's brothers were with him, and the wolves ate them up. Then the boy went to the palace and married the princess and became the king.
