once upon a time there was a king who had several sons . i do not just know how many there were , but the youngest was not content at home . he insisted on going out into the world to seek his fortune . and in the end the king had to give him permission to do so . after he had wandered for a few days , he came to a giant 's castle , and took service with the giant . in the morning the giant wanted to go off to herd his goats , and when he started he told the king 's son he was to clean the stable in the meantime . " and when you are through with that , you need do nothing more for to - day , for you might as well know that you have come to a kind master , " said he .

" yes , but have you plenty of money ? " said the master girl . yes , he had quite a little , said the bailiff . then he went home to fetch his money , and came back again at evening dragging along an enormous sack of it , which he stood on a bench before the door . the master girl said that , seeing he had so much money , she would accept him . and then she asked him to rake the fire , which she said she had forgotten to do . but as soon as he had the poker in his hand , the master girl cried : " may god grant that you hold the poker , and the poker hold you , and that sparks and ashes fly around you until morning !

the following morning the bailiff came by . he was much surprised to see the little golden hut , glittering and sparkling there in the forest , and was still more surprised at the girl within the hut . he fell in love with her at once , and asked her whether she would not become the bailiff 's lady . " yes , but have you plenty of money ? " said the master girl . yes , he had quite a little , said the bailiff . then he went home to fetch his money , and came back again at evening dragging along an enormous sack of it , which he stood on a bench before the door . the master girl said that , seeing he had so much money , she would accept him . and then she asked him to rake the fire , which she said she had forgotten to do . but as soon as he had the poker in his hand , the master girl cried : " may god grant that you hold the poker , and the poker hold you , and that sparks and ashes fly around you until morning ! " and there the bailiff stood the whole night through , and sparks and ashes flew about him , nor were the sparks the less hot for all his complaining and begging . and when morning came , and he could let go the poker , he did not stay long ; but ran off as though the evil one were at his heels . and those who saw him stared and laughed , for he ran like a madman , and looked as though he had been thrashed and tanned . and all would have liked to have known where he had come from , but he said not a word , for he was ashamed . on the following day there was to be a wedding at the castle , and not only was the older prince to marry , but the one who had stayed with the giant as well , and he was to get the other bride 's sister . but when they entered the coach and were about to drive to church , one of the axles broke . they took another , and then a third , but all of them broke , no matter what kind of wood they used . it took a great deal of time , and they did not move from the spot , and got all out of sorts . then the bailiff said , for he had also been invited to the wedding at the castle , that a maiden lived out in the forest , and " if they could only get the loan of her poker , it would be sure to hold . " so they sent to the little house in the forest , and asked most politely whether the maiden would not loan them the poker of which the bailiff had spoken . and they got it , too , and then they had an axle that would not break .
he had been stuck to it .

on the following day there was to be a wedding at the castle , and not only was the older prince to marry , but the one who had stayed with the giant as well , and he was to get the other bride 's sister . but when they entered the coach and were about to drive to church , one of the axles broke . they took another , and then a third , but all of them broke , no matter what kind of wood they used . it took a great deal of time , and they did not move from the spot , and got all out of sorts . then the bailiff said , for he had also been invited to the wedding at the castle , that a maiden lived out in the forest , and " if they could only get the loan of her poker , it would be sure to hold .

but when they wanted to drive on , the bottom of the coach broke . they made a new bottom as well as they were able , but no matter how they put it together , nor what kind of wood they used , it kept on breaking again as soon as they had left the court - yard . and they were worse off than they had been with the axle . then the clerk said -- for if the bailiff was one of the company , you may be sure they had not forgotten to invite the clerk--"out in the forest lives a maiden , and if you will get the loan of her house - door , i am sure it would not break . " so they sent to the little house in the forest , and asked most politely whether the maiden would not loan them the golden house - door , of which the clerk had told them . and they got it , too , and were about to drive on , when suddenly the horses could not draw the coach . there were six , so they put to eight , and then ten and twelve , but though they put as many as they liked to the coach and helped along with the whip , still the coach would not budge . the day was already far advanced , and they simply had to get to church , and actually began to despair . but then the magistrate said that out in the golden house in the forest lived a maiden , " and if one could only get the loan of her calf , it would be sure to pull the coach , and though it were as heavy as a bowlder . " they did not think it quite the thing to drive to church with a calf ; but still there was nothing to do but to send to the maiden , and to ask her most politely , with a kind greeting from the king , if she would loan them the calf of which the magistrate had spoken . nor did the master girl refuse them this time . and then , when they had put the calf to the coach , it moved from the spot quickly enough . it flew over stick and stone , hill and dale , so that the people inside could hardly catch their breath . first it was on the ground , and next it was in the air , and when they reached the church , it spun around it like a top , and they had the greatest difficulty in getting out and into the church . and going home they went still faster , and were nearly out of their wits by the time they reached the castle .
