She would dress in her scarlet cloak, and three-cornered cap. Then she would say some few words and give herself up to the devil, but nobody knows the words. She would ride on her broomstick for about twenty or thirty miles. She would milk a cow. Then she would turn herself into a hare when day would come and come home.

She put the cream in the churn and put the sock of the plough in the fire.
