  1. (continued from previous page)
    Páid said he would go with her to her father's place. When they reached the palace he pretended to be a doctor who had come to the King's daughter.
    He went to the sick room and there he saw the dead image of the girl he had left outside.
    He put on a big fire and says he "You won't be long there with that". She went out through the gable end of the house with a terrible noise and the hole was to be seen ever after and then Páid brought in the living daughter of the King. They were all delighted.
