    There was once a man and his wife living together.

    (continued from previous page)
    out, and asked him what did he want and the boy said he wanted fight, the giant said he would fight him. The contest began and in the end the boy killed the giant. When he had the giant killed he met a man who said that there was a lovely princess near the palace, and that she would marry him, and that he would have her castle and all belonging to her for himself. So the boy and the princess got married and he brought his mother to the castle and they lived happily together after that.
