    wheels in the rocks.
    Once upon a time a man was walking through a hill and he found a piece of a rope. He took the piece of rope home and that night, as he was putting in the cows he found that one of the cow rope were broken and he put in the other piece of a rope.
    So the next day he was milking the cow and he got 3 times as much milk. So they left the rope in the hill again and the cow had the same amount as before. This was a fairy rope found by the man.
