He just put down his hand and splashed a drop of the water in on his two eyes; and he had his sight then as well as ever he had.
"Well now," says he to the herd, "would you be so kind as to give me a bottle?"
"I will," says the herd.
He filled the bottle with the water of the well and off he went. He was travelling until he came to the king's house. He asked to let him in.
The man who was on guard said that he would not let him in, that the king's daughter was sick and ill.
He sent for the king. He told him [by the messenger] that there was a man at the gate who would cure his daughter.
The king came out, and told the gate keeper to let in the man.
When he came in the king took him back into the chamber where his daughter was. When he looked at her [he saw that] she was as big as a horse.
"Now," said he to the king, "send for your men at arms, bring them in here."
When the men at arms were inside, he closed the door outside. He told them, anything that she should throw out, they must cut the head off it.
