Suddenly he saw that people were there leaping up. They were reaching up for the ring. He saw that nobody could jump. On that old horse, he gave it a thump on its haunch and reached the ring. He put the ring on his finger and left. Then the others said: “What kind of a horse was that? Our horses didn’t get up that high, but he reached it on that bad mare.” But his brothers did not recognise him. Whose horse it was, who knows? He came home. He did not go to his bride. He came home straight away.

So, they slept the night, the next day morning came and they heard outside the house, outside the tent the knocking of horns and clanking of hooves, so many animals had come together. They went outside, and the clearing, whether it was large or small, had become dark, it was completely covered with a reindeer herd. They harnessed a team, took down the tent prepared the tent and tied it down. He harnessed three steer, the town hero’s son and the Por woman prepared the woman’s sled. Other sleds were also harnessed up, a sled to transport the tent. The old man again started to talk to the town hero’s son. “Later,” he said, “until your wife says so, don’t look back. If you want to be full, if you want to be clothed. But after this it’s your thought, your deed. When the time comes, your wife will tell you, glance back, look at the land.”

I know a story, now I’ll tell it. There lived an elder brother and a younger brother. The elder brother had a wife. The younger brother had no wife, he lived along, he lived alone in a house. They had names, I’ll say their names now. The elder brother’s name was War-Arrow Spirit, Death-Arrow Spirit. The name of his wife was Little Bitch of the Man with a Hundred Relatives. Somewhere, in some place or other lived an old man with a hundred relatives and she was the daughter of this old man. He was the son-in-law of the old man with the hundred relatives. The name of the younger brother was White Bench of the Sun Back, White Bench of the Moon Back. That’s how he was called. The younger brother lived and in the course of his whole life he did not go outside, he stayed in the house. He did not show himself in broad daylight, outside, he did not go outside. He had nothing to go out for, nothing to do outside. He just lived and lived.

Old man snake said: “Where shall we go?” “Before,” he said, “there used to be a big larch tree. Trees like that are hollow and have roots. If you burrow into the hollow of a tree like that, they won’t disturb the larch. They won’t disturb it. So hide inside the tree, only that will rescue you.” “Right,” he said. “I see this tree, it’s hollow on the inside.” Old man mammoth said: “And where shall I go? I’ll go into the earth, I’ll live in the earth.” So, fine. They left. They ran off and hid themselves. Old man fox lay where the animal had been lying, he lay down. He had taken care of the matter, had achieved his goal. And old man bull lay on the bed or couch of old man mammoth together with his wife. They were living in a beautiful house, in a house like the tsar’s.

But the man of tales said: “Come on, I’ll tie you up, we’ll melt lead, his eyes were bad, I’ll heal your eyes.” The demon said: “Fine, if that’s the way it is, that’s the way it is.” The man of tales went off and took and he said to the old man: “I have killed many people, I have killed many animals and you will not get rid of me.” The man of tales went off and took a large stone cauldron in which cooking was done, a stone cauldron, hung it on two posts and looked: [there was] a large lump of lead. He took it and poured it there, into the stone cauldron. He ordered the demon to lie on his back. He lay down on his back. “So, open one eye, now I’ll do your eye with lead.”

Mitkhui and Melesnik lived in the forest. Ear to them on the other side of the forest lived a demon. They hunted in the place where they lived, and the demon hunted in the place where he lived. Once Mitkhui and Melesnik went hunting. They went hunting and came to where the demon lived. They came to the place where the demon lived, the demon was out hunting. They went into his house, an old woman was there. The old woman said: “Why have you come, children? The demon will come now and eat you.” Suddenly the whole house began to shake. The demon was coming. The old woman took them and turned them into needles in her dress. She turned them into needles in her dress. She turned them into needles and just when she had turned them into needles the demon swept into the house. The demon swept into the house and said: “It smells of humans here.” But the old woman said: “Where should the smell of humans come from? I was just sweeping out the rubbish.”

There lived a woman. She had four sons. Her children did not obey her, all day long they ran around, they played in the snow, from morning to night they did not help their mother at all. They would come home and let their mother dry the water on their shoes, the water on their coats, the water on their mittens. Such a life was hard for their mother. While she was living like that, she became ill and lay down. She was lying. Once she wanted to drink water. “Children, come here, give me water. My throat is dry, give me water.” She called her children many times, the children did not come. The eldest son said: “I have no shoes.” The second son said: “I have no hat.” The third son said: “I have no clothes.” But the youngest son said nothing. The mother called: “Come here to me, I need water. Bring and give me water. My tongue is dry. I want to drink.” But the children ran out of the house, they played for a long or a short time, they did not go into the house.

Old man wolf was going there. The wolf put his tongue out. “These young animals,” he said and thought, “if only I had wings like they do. Squirrels move a lot and go far on the ground, they jump and leap through the whole forest.” The wolf said: “Why don’t I jump just as easily?” Then the crow came and said: “How will you jump? Because the squirrels have a downy tail, they can fly. But poor you have no fluffy tail and you can’t fly.” The crow brought the wolf to tears. The wolf wept: “Really,” he said, “in the course of my life I have earned little for myself. The squirrels eat the berries found in the forest, they eat the cones found in the forest. And poor me, I will stop like this.” That’s how he lived.

Maxim took his aunt and, when night fell, put her on his own place to sleep. She was all hunched up, he straightened her out nicely. He himself flopped down on the aunt’s place, where she slept, hunching over, he lay and moaned, moaned this way and moaned that way. Suddenly at night he heard that his brother had arrived. The old woman, this sick old woman was covered by blankets. Her head was all covered, she had fallen asleep. The elder brother slaughtered the woman instead of the younger brother. Her head flew off.

Night fell, the time came for the husbands to return, but the Vajnin woman walked back and forth. She said: “Where shall I take my child from? How shall I tell it to his father now?” At this moment the boards opened up and at once the child jumped out and there were little bells under his arms: cling-cling-cling - he ran one way, cling-cling-cling he ran the other way, cling-cling-cling. He jumped out and ran towards his father, but the Por woman had stuck a stick inside her child, it knocked with one leg, it knocked with the other leg. This child went back and forth–clop-clop, turned the other way–clop-clop. Its father came home and the father of the ringing child also returned home and took him home. The father of this piece of wood came home, then he went out, when he went out, he took the Por woman and with his foot he trod on her leg. He lifted her other leg and tore he in two. After this the man said: “Henceforth let no good man live together with a Por woman.”
