The giant was very much surprised but when he thought of the cake he had eaten he said to himself that it was no wonder that the baby could bite off his finger when the people ate such hard break. He was very thirsty after eating the terrible meal and he went out to the stream which ran near the house. He lay down on the edge of the stream to drink, but when Finn's wife saw him she thought of another plan by which she could get rid of him. She got an arrow which she poisoned and going to the stream she put it in the water.
