"Grandmother, why have you lied to me about my father and mother?"
But she answered not, for she knew that a ghost had told all to the boy. And the boy fell upon the ground weeping and sobbing, until he fell into a deep sleep, when strange things were told him.
His slumber continued three days and three nights and when he awoke he said to his grandmother:
"I am going away to enlist all nations in my fight."
And straightway he departed.
(Here the boy's travels are related with many circumstances concerning the way he was received by the people, all given in a series of conversations, very lengthy; so they will be omitted.)
