    small bush they heard a voice singing lovely airs. They looked in at a bush and they saw the head of Donnbo in side in it. They asked the head where the Kings body lay and the head answered "over near that tree" and they said "I promised the King no matter where I would be to night that I would amuse him. " He said " take my head to where my body lies near the King and bury me with the King."
