    but the dough left on it could almost feed a pig. He gave it to the horse and the man went to the next house and asked for a white drink for his horse. The girl asked what was she to put into it. He said "Oh the dough on the breadboard will do". "Well" she says, "if it does you it will do me" and she ran for it but it was scrubbed as white as snow. So this is the woman he chose and they were married and lived happily ever afterwards.
