The young man said "The good people must have been taking your child when I came on them and they have left that creac instead, just put it down on the floor" said he to the woman "and I'll settle it." The woman dropped it quickly enough when she found her own child was alive. Then the young man blew up the gríosach and lit up a good fire well forward on the hearth so as to leave a nice space at the back. When the fire was well lighted he said to the man of the house "Hand me that thing on the floor till I put it in behind the fire."

The woman said to her husband "Oh give it to them, put it outside the door and let them have it." The husband put the dead baby outside the door and he and the young man stayed talking in the kitchen until daybreak. When they went out then there was no trace of the corpse, and the "good people" never troubled them from that day on.
