  1. There was once a man and he was going playing cards. He had a pack of cards in his pocket. As he was going past a fort he met a man. The man asked him to have a game of cards with him. They got two chairs and they sat down to play a game of cards.
    The stranger had the game allmost won so he let his see the curled hoofs and all the chains of fire he had about him.
