Hare + Witch
Once upon a time there was a man looking for a hunt and he went to a witches son and asked him where would he get a hunt and the son told his mother and she turned herself into a hare and she went into a certain bush. The man went with his two greyhounds and he put up a hare and the dogs started after it, as it was going into an old ruins the dogs bit it. When the man went inside he saw an old woman sitting at a fire and she covered with blood. Then he said "a my old lady you was caught at last." - Transcription guide »You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
