    giants jumped out and they almost killed him. When he came to himself again he went to the farmer's house. He asked the prince to return the bottle to him but he refused.
    Michael placed the bottle on the floor and he expressed his wish. The two giants jumped out and they almost killed the prince. Michael took the bottle off the mantlepiece and he brought it home with him. He became very rich again and he lived happily ever afterward. On the day of his funeral the leprechaun took the bottle and all his riches away when his family were at his funeral.
