    (continued from previous page)
    of the shoemaker that was about to make her shoes. He went to the shoemaker and told him that he would make one shoe and the shoemaker could make the other. The shoemaker would not let him and the Goban Saor said he would pay if he did any harm to the shoe. The shoes were made and were sent to the lady. She said whoever made that one let him make the too. The Goban Saor said he could not because he should take her measure.
    The lady went to the Goban Saor to take her measure and shortly after they got married.
