Description:A man sold a hundred cattle to purchase a very good horse for his son. The son took the horse and went to court a beautiful lady in another distant land. On his way he met a dwarf who was so excited that he would eat him and his horse. The dwarf sung a song so that the man could not pass under his tree but the man responded that he would pass. Before the dwarf realised it, the man had jumped over him with the horse. He went and married the beautiful lady and on his way back he met the dwarf again who again wanted to eat him and his bride. The man hit the dwarf with a club and he ran into the bush.
