    As soon as she got to the road the house disappeared. Then she met the loaf of bread on the road and she picked it up. She met the load of hay and she stod still while it was passing her. When it had passed her it disappeared and the loaf of bread disappeared out of her hands. The woman was very frightened and she fainted. When she woke up again she was in her own house. Then she knew that the man who told her to go to his house was a fairy.
