‘Well, now, what do you want, man, for releasing the water?’
‘Give me a carriage and two horses and a carriageful of money.’
They gave them to him. He went to the emperor’s daughter. ‘What will you give me if I make her strong?’
‘What you want, I will give you.’
‘Set water on the fire to boil.’
And he went and took out the toad, and threw it into the bath; and they washed the emperor’s daughter, and she grew stronger and fairer than ever.
‘What do you want for making her strong and fair?’
‘Give me two horses and a carriageful of money, and give me a driver home.’
So he went home, and sent the servant to his brother, to borrow a bushel. And his brother asked, ‘What to do with the bushel?’
‘To measure money with.’
