  1. There was a king who lived in Drung. He had three daughters.
    Each of them had a horse. The groom did up the horses each evening.
    When he got up in the morning one of them would be dirty. He stayed up one night. In the middle of the night one of the girls got up in her sleep. She got on one of horses. She rode all round the country. She put the horse in the shed and went back to bed.
