    One night a man was coming home from rambling and he heard music and dancing and saw lights outside a house.

    One night a man was coming home from rambling and he heard music and dancing and saw lights outside a house. Thinking there was a dance in the house he went to it but when he reached the house he could see nothing and all the household were in bed. He went on his way again but when he had gone a little distance he looked back and the people were there as before.
