- One day a man was going to the forge with his horse. He took the the horse out of the stable and led him down to a lake for a drink. He was drinking the water for about ten minutes and the man said to him "that you may never stop".
When the horse heard the man say that he dived into the lake, and disappeared in the depths of the water. The man did not know what to do because he had the horse bought only a week beforehand. He went home and told his story.
