- THE THREE PRINCESSES OF WHITELAND.
- But she was very woeful, and said to him,—

- So up got the bride and made a curtsey, and said,—
- THE COCK, THE CUCKOO, AND THE BLACK-COCK.

- But the third time Dapple said,—
- THE SEVEN FOALS.
- And when they had travelled a long long way, the Foal asked,—
- THE WIDOW’S SON.
- So one day the man said,—
