“He emptied out his pockets, and laid handfuls of the largest jewels on the table. The parents had not the least idea what to do with the riches. Then the father built a magnificent castle all siirrounded by gardens, woods, and meadows as if a prince were going to live in it, and when it was ready, the mother said, " I have found a maiden for thee, and the wedding shall be in three days."
