FUNDEVOGEL

They said therefore to each other: ‘What can we do here, let us go home.’

When they got home, the cook asked if they had not found them; so they said no, they had found nothing but a church, and there was a chandelier in it.

And the cook scolded them and said: ‘You fools!

why did you not pull the church to pieces, and bring the chandelier home with you?’

And now the old cook herself got on her legs, and went with the three servants in pursuit of the children.

The children, however, saw from afar that the three servants were coming, and the cook waddling after them.

Then said Lina: ‘Fundevogel, never leave me, and I will never leave you.’

Then said Fundevogel: ‘Neither now, nor ever.’ Said Lina: ‘Be a fishpond, and I will be the duck upon it.’

The cook, however, came up to them, and when she saw the pond she lay down by it, and was about to drink it up.

But the duck swam quickly to her, seized her head in its beak and drew her into the water, and there the old witch had to drown.

Then the children went home together, and were heartily delighted, and if they have not died, they are living still.
