And she brings out the second, and he says to him:
“Will you be servant to me?”
And he said, “Yes.”
Again, he smelled the smell of some one, and at the third time she brings out the third, and he says to him:
“All three of you shall sup with me to-night, and afterwards we shall go to bed. But to-morrow we will all go hunting.”
And they go hunting the next day until eight o’clock in the evening.
Now, they had at home a little sister. She was little then, but in time she grew up. One day the landlady and the farmer’s wife had put out the new maize in the garden to dry; and when no one saw her, the little girl took some from her mistress’ heap, and put it to her own. When the mistress saw that, she began to cry out, saying to her,
“Bold hussey that you are, there is no one like you! You will come to a bad end like your brothers.”
And the young girl began to cry, and goes to find her mother, and says to her,
“Mother, had I any brothers?”[8]
