    when they were coming back from burning her the dogs said to the boy "you must drown us now or you will be drowned". He did not like to drown them but he had to. Then he went home to his father and mother and they were so delighted to see him that they didn't know what to do and so they put down the kettle and made tay and if they don't live happy that we may.
