The next day the man met the devils again and they saw he had his eyes again and they asked him how he got them back and he told them. These cats had all the news of the day.
The devils went the next night for news and he hid in a corner. When the cats came in that night they told the king cat all the news. They told him that the man got his sight again. They said some-one must have been listening here last night. So they made a search and found the devils and tore them to pieces.
