“In a certain village there lived a man who owned a cow.”
In a certain village there lived a man who owned a cow. He had only one and had a very large family. The cow died and left them without scarcely any food to eat.
They were greatly surprised when the next evening came, the cow had returned at the usual time to be milked. This happened every evening until he got another cow.
The very instant the cow was milked she put her tail across her back and bowing three times, galloped across the moorland out of sight.
