I will give you this little bottle for her said the little man taking a bottle from his pocket. Michael looked at the bottle and laughed. "Laugh if you will. This bottle is better than all the money you will get for her said the little man. Michael took the bottle and gave the cow. "When you go home sweep the floor and put a clean cloth on the table and say. "Bottle do your duty". When he was going home Molly came to meet him and asked "How are you back so soon." What has happened to you." Where's the cow." What did you get" "Who made the bargain." Tell me all about her." Michael took out the bottle and told her what to do he left the bottle on the table and said the words. Out stepped to little men and filt the table with gold and silver dishes and all sort of food. So the lived very happy ever after.
