When evening came the nose was a little better. "My good lady, something is working against my medicine" said the soldier. "You have stolen goods about you". "You must do as the wise man tells you" agreed the king. "Send back the cloak and purse which you stole". The princess sent for the stolen goods and begged the Doctor to give them back to the owner.

The old soldier went back to his comrade and the two of them were as happy as the day is long.
