    find out. He went into the castle, where he got a great welcome from the owner, who asked him if he would stay. The man said he would. So the other showed him his room. He did not go into the bed himself, but his dog did. The man had decided to wait and see what the owner would do but he did not need to wait long, because the bed gave away under the dog and it sank down into the Maine. The man then knew the secret and made it known to the public and the owner was executed.
