    "There was a man who had three sons, the youngest of whom was called Dummling, and was despised, mocked, and sneered at on every occasion.",
    "It happened that the eldest wanted to go into the forest to hew wood, and before he went his mother gave him a beautiful sweet cake and a bottle of wine in order that he might not suffer from hunger or thirst.",
    "When he entered the forest he met a little grey-haired old man who bade him good-day, and said, do give me a piece of cake out of your pocket, and let me have a draught of your wine, I am so hungry and thirsty. But the clever son answered, if I give you my cake and wine, I shall have none for myself, be off with you, and he left the little man standing and went on.",
    "But when he began to hew down a tree, it was not long before he made a false stroke, and the axe cut him in the arm, so that he had to go home and have it bound up. And this was the little grey man's doing.",
    "After this the second son went into the forest, and his mother gave him, like the eldest, a cake and a bottle of wine. The little old grey man met him likewise, and asked him for a piece of cake and a drink of wine. But the second son, too, said sensibly enough, what I give you will be taken away from myself, be off, and he left the little man standing and went on. His punishment, however, was not delayed, when he had made a few blows at the tree he struck himself in the leg, so that he had to be carried home.",
    "Then Dummling said, father, do let me go and cut wood. The father answered, your brothers have hurt themselves with it, leave it alone, you do not understand anything about it. But Dummling begged so long that at last he said, just go then, you will get wiser by hurting yourself. His mother gave him a cake made with water and baked in the cinders, and with it a bottle of sour beer.",
    "When he came to the forest the little old grey man met him likewise, and greeting him, said, give me a piece of your cake and a drink out of your bottle, I am so hungry and thirsty.",
    "Dummling answered, I have only cinder-cake and sour beer, if that pleases you, we will sit down and eat. So they sat down, and when Dummling pulled out his cinder-cake, it was a fine sweet cake, and the sour beer had become good wine. So they ate and drank, and after that the little man said, since you have a good heart, and are willing to divide what you have, I will give you good luck. There stands an old tree, cut it down, and you will find something at the roots. Then the little man took leave of him.",
    "Dummling went and cut down the tree, and when it fell there was a goose sitting in the roots with feathers of pure gold. He lifted her up, and taking her with him, went to an inn where he thought he would stay the night. Now the host had three daughters, who saw the goose and were curious to know what such a wonderful bird might be, and would have liked to have one of its golden feathers.",
    "The eldest thought, I shall soon find an opportunity of pulling out a feather, and as soon as Dummling had gone out she seized the goose by the wing, but her finger and hand remained sticking fast to it.",
    "The second came soon afterwards, thinking only of how she might get a feather for herself, but she had scarcely touched her sister than she was held fast.",
    "At last the third also came with the like intent, and the others screamed out, keep away, for goodness, sake keep away. But she did not understand why she was to keep away. The others are there, she thought, I may as well be there too, and ran to them, but as soon as she had touched her sister, she remained sticking fast to her. So they had to spend the night with the goose.",
    "The next morning Dummling took the goose under his arm and set out, without troubling himself about the three girls who were hanging on to it. They were obliged to run after him continually, now left, now right, wherever his legs took him.",
    "In the middle of the fields the parson met them, and when he saw the procession he said, for shame, you good-for-nothing girls, why are you running across the fields after this young man. Is that seemly? At the same time he seized the youngest by the hand in order to pull her away, but as soon as he touched her he likewise stuck fast, and was himself obliged to run behind.",
    "Before long the sexton came by and saw his master, the parson, running behind three girls. He was astonished at this and called out, hi, your reverence, whither away so quickly. Do not forget that we have a christening to-day, and running after him he took him by the sleeve, but was also held fast to it. Whilst the five were trotting thus one behind the other, two laborers came with their hoes from the fields, the parson called out to them and begged that they would set him and the sexton free. But they had scarcely touched the sexton when they were held fast, and now there were seven of them running behind Dummling and the goose.",
    "Soon afterwards he came to a city, where a king ruled who had a daughter who was so serious that no one could make her laugh. So he had put forth a decree that whosoever should be able to make her laugh should marry her. When Dummling heard this, he went with his goose and all her train before the king's daughter, and as soon as she saw the seven people running on and on, one behind the other, she began to laugh quite loudly, and as if she would never stop.",
    "Thereupon Dummling asked to have her for his wife, but the king did not like the son-in-law, and made all manner of excuses and said he must first produce a man who could drink a cellarful of wine.",
    "Dummling thought of the little grey man, who could certainly help him, so he went into the forest, and in the same place where he had felled the tree, he saw a man sitting, who had a very sorrowful face. Dummling asked him what he was taking to heart so sorely, and he answered, I have such a great thirst and cannot quench it, cold water I cannot stand, a barrel of wine I have just emptied, but that to me is like a drop on a hot stone.",
    "There, I can help you, said Dummling, just come with me and you shall be satisfied.",
    "He led him into the king's cellar, and the man bent over the huge barrels, and drank and drank till his loins hurt, and before the day was out he had emptied all the barrels. Then Dummling asked once more for his bride, but the king was vexed that such an ugly fellow, whom everyone called Dummling, should take away his daughter, and he made a new condition, he must first find a man who could eat a whole mountain of bread. Dummling did not think long, but went straight into the forest, where in the same place there sat a man who was tying up his body with a strap, and making an awful face, and saying, I have eaten a whole ovenful of rolls, but what good is that when one has such a hunger as I. My stomach remains empty, and I must tie myself up if I am not to die of hunger.",
    "At this Dummling was glad, and said, get up and come with me, you shall eat yourself full. He led him to the king's palace, where all the flour in the whole kingdom was collected, and from it he caused a huge mountain of bread to be baked. The man from the forest stood before it, began to eat, and by the end of one day the whole mountain had vanished. Then Dummling for the third time asked for his bride, but the king again sought a way out, and ordered a ship which could sail on land and on water. As soon as you come sailing back in it, said he, you shall have my daughter for wife.",
    "Dummling went straight into the forest, and there sat the little grey man to whom he had given his cake. When he heard what Dummling wanted, he said, since you have given me to eat and to drink, I will give you the ship, and I do all this because you once were kind to me. Then he gave him the ship which could sail on land and water, and when the king saw that, he could no longer prevent him from having his daughter. The wedding was celebrated, and after the king's death, Dummling inherited his kingdom and lived for a long time contentedly with his wife."

Then Dummling asked once more for his bride, but the king was vexed that such an ugly fellow, whom everyone called Dummling, should take away his daughter, and he made a new condition, he must first find a man who could eat a whole mountain of bread. Dummling did not think long, but went straight into the forest, where in the same place there sat a man who was tying up his body with a strap, and making an awful face, and saying, I have eaten a whole ovenful of rolls, but what good is that when one has such a hunger as I. My stomach remains empty, and I must tie myself up if I am not to die of hunger.\n\nAt this Dummling was glad, and said, get up and come with me, you shall eat yourself full.

Then Dummling for the third time asked for his bride, but the king again sought a way out, and ordered a ship which could sail on land and on water. As soon as you come sailing back in it, said he, you shall have my daughter for wife.\n\nDummling went straight into the forest, and there sat the little grey man to whom he had given his cake. When he heard what Dummling wanted, he said, since you have given me to eat and to drink, I will give you the ship, and I do all this because you once were kind to me. Then he gave him the ship which could sail on land and water, and when the king saw that, he could no longer prevent him from having his daughter. The wedding was celebrated, and after the king's death, Dummling inherited his kingdom and lived for a long time contentedly with his wife.",

    "Soon afterwards he came to a city, where a king ruled who had a daughter who was so serious that no one could make her laugh. So he had put forth a decree that whosoever should be able to make her laugh should marry her. When Dummling heard this, he went with his goose and all her train before the king's daughter, and as soon as she saw the seven people running on and on, one behind the other, she began to laugh quite loudly, and as if she would never stop.",
    "Thereupon Dummling asked to have her for his wife, but the king did not like the son-in-law, and made all manner of excuses and said he must first produce a man who could drink a cellarful of wine.",
    "Dummling thought of the little grey man, who could certainly help him, so he went into the forest, and in the same place where he had felled the tree, he saw a man sitting, who had a very sorrowful face. Dummling asked him what he was taking to heart so sorely, and he answered, I have such a great thirst and cannot quench it, cold water I cannot stand, a barrel of wine I have just emptied, but that to me is like a drop on a hot stone.",
    "There, I can help you, said Dummling, just come with me and you shall be satisfied.",
    "He led him into the king's cellar, and the man bent over the huge barrels, and drank and drank till his loins hurt, and before the day was out he had emptied all the barrels. Then Dummling asked once more for his bride, but the king was vexed that such an ugly fellow, whom everyone called Dummling, should take away his daughter, and he made a new condition, he must first find a man who could eat a whole mountain of bread. Dummling did not think long, but went straight into the forest, where in the same place there sat a man who was tying up his body with a strap, and making an awful face, and saying, I have eaten a whole ovenful of rolls, but what good is that when one has such a hunger as I. My stomach remains empty, and I must tie myself up if I am not to die of hunger.",
    "At this Dummling was glad, and said, get up and come with me, you shall eat yourself full. He led him to the king's palace, where all the flour in the whole kingdom was collected, and from it he caused a huge mountain of bread to be baked. The man from the forest stood before it, began to eat, and by the end of one day the whole mountain had vanished. Then Dummling for the third time asked for his bride, but the king again sought a way out, and ordered a ship which could sail on land and on water. As soon as you come sailing back in it, said he, you shall have my daughter for wife.",
    "Dummling went straight into the forest, and there sat the little grey man to whom he had given his cake. When he heard what Dummling wanted, he said, since you have given me to eat and to drink, I will give you the ship, and I do all this because you once were kind to me. Then he gave him the ship which could sail on land and water, and when the king saw that, he could no longer prevent him from having his daughter. The wedding was celebrated, and after the king's death, Dummling inherited his kingdom and lived for a long time contentedly with his wife."

    "There was a man who had three sons, the youngest of whom was called Dummling, and was despised, mocked, and sneered at on every occasion.",
    "It happened that the eldest wanted to go into the forest to hew wood, and before he went his mother gave him a beautiful sweet cake and a bottle of wine in order that he might not suffer from hunger or thirst.",
    "When he entered the forest he met a little grey-haired old man who bade him good-day, and said, do give me a piece of cake out of your pocket, and let me have a draught of your wine, I am so hungry and thirsty. But the clever son answered, if I give you my cake and wine, I shall have none for myself, be off with you, and he left the little man standing and went on.",
    "But when he began to hew down a tree, it was not long before he made a false stroke, and the axe cut him in the arm, so that he had to go home and have it bound up. And this was the little grey man's doing.",
    "After this the second son went into the forest, and his mother gave him, like the eldest, a cake and a bottle of wine. The little old grey man met him likewise, and asked him for a piece of cake and a drink of wine. But the second son, too, said sensibly enough, what I give you will be taken away from myself, be off, and he left the little man standing and went on. His punishment, however, was not delayed, when he had made a few blows at the tree he struck himself in the leg, so that he had to be carried home.",
    "Then Dummling said, father, do let me go and cut wood. The father answered, your brothers have hurt themselves with it, leave it alone, you do not understand anything about it. But Dummling begged so long that at last he said, just go then, you will get wiser by hurting yourself. His mother gave him a cake made with water and baked in the cinders, and with it a bottle of sour beer.",
    "When he came to the forest the little old grey man met him likewise, and greeting him, said, give me a piece of your cake and a drink out of your bottle, I am so hungry and thirsty.",
    "Dummling answered, I have only cinder-cake and sour beer, if that pleases you, we will sit down and eat. So they sat down, and when Dummling pulled out his cinder-cake, it was a fine sweet cake, and the sour beer had become good wine. So they ate and drank, and after that the little man said, since you have a good heart, and are willing to divide what you have, I will give you good luck. There stands an old tree, cut it down, and you will find something at the roots. Then the little man took leave of him.",
    "Dummling went and cut down the tree, and when it fell there was a goose sitting in the roots with feathers of pure gold. He lifted her up, and taking her with him, went to an inn where he thought he would stay the night. Now the host had three daughters, who saw the goose and were curious to know what such a wonderful bird might be, and would have liked to have one of its golden feathers.",
    "The eldest thought, I shall soon find an opportunity of pulling out a feather, and as soon as Dummling had gone out she seized the goose by the wing, but her finger and hand remained sticking fast to it.",
    "The second came soon afterwards, thinking only of how she might get a feather for herself, but she had scarcely touched her sister than she was held fast.",
    "At last the third also came with the like intent, and the others screamed out, keep away, for goodness, sake keep away. But she did not understand why she was to keep away. The others are there, she thought, I may as well be there too, and ran to them, but as soon as she had touched her sister, she remained sticking fast to her. So they had to spend the night with the goose.",
    "The next morning Dummling took the goose under his arm and set out, without troubling himself about the three girls who were hanging on to it. They were obliged to run after him continually, now left, now right, wherever his legs took him.",
    "In the middle of the fields the parson met them, and when he saw the procession he said, for shame, you good-for-nothing girls, why are you running across the fields after this young man. Is that seemly? At the same time he seized the youngest by the hand in order to pull her away, but as soon as he touched her he likewise stuck fast, and was himself obliged to run behind.",
    "Before long the sexton came by and saw his master, the parson, running behind three girls. He was astonished at this and called out, hi, your reverence, whither away so quickly. Do not forget that we have a christening to-day, and running after him he took him by the sleeve, but was also held fast to it. Whilst the five were trotting thus one behind the other, two laborers came with their hoes from the fields, the parson called out to them and begged that they would set him and the sexton free. But they had scarcely touched the sexton when they were held fast, and now there were seven of them running behind Dummling and the goose.",

You do not understand anything about it.\" But Dummling begged so long that at last his father said, \"Just go then. You will get wiser by hurting yourself.\" His mother gave him a cake made with water and baked in the cinders, and with it a bottle of sour beer.",
    "When he came to the forest, the little old grey man was there too. He smiled at the boy and said, \"Please give me a piece of your cake and a drink from your bottle. I am so hungry and thirsty.",
    "Dummling said, \"I only have some dry cake and sour beer. If that is okay with you, we can sit down and eat.\" So they sat down. When Dummling pulled out his dry cake, it was a sweet, soft cake. And the sour beer had turned into good, sweet wine. They ate and drank happily. After that, the little man smiled and said, \"Since you have a kind heart and share what you have, I will give you good luck. There is an old tree over there. Cut it down, and you will find something wonderful at the roots.\" Then the little man waved goodbye and left.",
    "Dummling went and cut down the tree. When it fell, there was a goose sitting in the roots with feathers of pure gold. He lifted her up and took her with him. He went to an inn where he thought he would stay the night. The innkeeper had three daughters. They saw the goose and were very curious. They wanted to know what such a wonderful bird might be, and they would have loved to have one of its golden feathers.",
    "The oldest sister thought, *I will get a feather as soon as Dummling leaves.* She grabbed the golden goose by the wing, but her finger and hand stuck fast to it.",
    "Soon after, the second sister came running. She only wanted a golden feather for herself. But she had barely touched her sister when she got stuck fast.",
    "At last, the third sister came, too. She wanted to join them. The others shouted, \"Stay away! Please, stay away!\" But she did not understand why. She saw her sisters were there, so she thought, \"I can go there, too.\" She ran to them. But the moment she touched her sister, she stuck to her like glue. So, they had to spend the night with the goose.",
    "The next morning, Dummling picked up the golden goose. He walked away, not looking back at the three girls. They were holding on tight to the bird. They had to run after him, left and right, wherever his feet took him.",
    "In the middle of the fields, the parson met them. When he saw the happy group, he shook his head. \"For shame,\" he said. \"Why are you running across the fields after this young man? Is that seemly?\" At the same time, he grabbed the youngest girl's hand to pull her away. But as soon as he touched her, he stuck fast, too! Now, he had to run behind them, just like the others.",
    "Before long, the sexton came by and saw his master, the parson, running after three girls. He was very surprised and called out, \"Hi, Reverend! Where are you going in such a hurry? Don't forget we have a christening to do today!\" The sexton ran after him and grabbed his sleeve, but he could not let go. While they were all running like that, two farm workers came from the fields with their hoes. The parson called out to them and begged them to let him and the sexton go free. But as soon as they touched the sexton, they got stuck too. Now there were seven people running behind Dummling and the golden goose.",
    "Soon after, he arrived at a city. A kind king lived there with his daughter. She was very serious and never smiled. The king made a big rule. He said that anyone who could make her laugh could marry her. When Dummling heard this, he took his golden goose and her friends. He walked them to the princess. She looked at the seven people running behind the goose. They were all holding on tight. She started to laugh out loud. She laughed and laughed, and it felt like she would never stop.",
    "Dummling asked if he could marry her. The king did not like Dummling. He made many excuses. He said Dummling must bring a man who could drink a whole cellar of wine.",
    "Dummling thought of the kind little grey man who could surely help him. He went into the forest and found the same spot where he had cut down the tree. There, he saw a man sitting there with a very sad face. Dummling asked him why he looked so unhappy. The man answered, \"I have a terrible thirst, but I cannot drink. I cannot stand cold water. I just emptied a barrel of wine, but it feels like just a drop of water on a hot stone.",
    "There, I can help you, said Dummling. Just come with me, and you shall be happy.",
    "He took him to the king’s cellar. The man bent over the big barrels and drank and drank. His tummy hurt, but by the end of the day, he had emptied every single barrel. Then Dummling asked for his bride again. The king was sad. He did not want an ugly man, who everyone called Dummling, to take his daughter. So, he made a new rule. Dummling had to find a man who could eat a whole mountain of bread. Dummling did not think for long. He went straight into the forest. There, he saw a man tying his body with a strap. The man looked very sad and tired. He said, \"I have eaten a whole oven full of rolls, but I am still so hungry. My tummy is empty. I must tie myself up or I will starve.",
    "Dummling was so happy. He said, \"Get up and come with me. You can eat as much as you want.\" He took the man to the king's big palace. There was flour from all over the kingdom. Dummling had a huge mountain of bread made from it. The man from the forest stood in front of it. He started to eat. By the end of the day, the whole mountain was gone. Then Dummling asked for his bride for the third time. The king tried to find another way out. He ordered a special ship that could sail on land and on water. \"As soon as you come sailing back in it,\" said the king, \"you shall have my daughter for your wife.",
    "Dummling walked straight into the forest. There sat the little grey man, the one he had given his cake to. When the man heard what Dummling wanted, he smiled. He said, \"Since you were kind to me and shared your food, I will give you a special ship. It can sail on land and on water.\" Dummling was so happy. When the king saw the ship, he could not stop the wedding anymore. Dummling and his wife had a big party. Later, when the king passed away, Dummling became the new king. He lived happily with his wife for a long, long time."
