    the third morning, the horse was still there. He thought it a pity to leave her there with his work undone. He went down to the lake and caught her. He brought her into his field, and put her harrowing. She worked very good all day. He brought her down to lake for a drink in the evening. She began to drink, and drink until at last, the man saw chimney tops coming out of the water. he then said to the horse "Do you want to dry the lake entirely". At that moment, the horse sprang out of his hands into the water. The lake then filled up as big as ever. The horse was not seen since.
