    There was once a man coming from rambling in the night.

    (continued from previous page)
    When he came a little further the dog told him to take him back to where you brought me from. The man was frightened and he left the dog down and ran home. When he went home the house was full of fairies. When he went to so anything he could not do it with the fairies. So he had to leave the house after. Then the fairies went when the man went. After a time the man came back again.
