Ivanushka stayed home. Ivanushka’s brothers left, but he took another of his horses and also set out after them. Oh, people were lined up all along the road. The girl was checking them all to see who had the ring. When she came to Ivanushka, he was filthy all over. She came up to him, his fingers were visible. His bride unrolled the bad rags and all over there was a white brilliance. Then she said: “This was my bridegroom.” Then he was ordered to the tsar and his mouth was dribbling. The tsar said: “Well fine, let him be it.” First, the tsar ordered him to be seated at the table, then gave him clothes and furs, he was seated next to the tsar’s daughter, his finger was gleaming, made a gleam. Then they started to live with the tsar, with the tsar’s children, they are probably still living together.

The demon said: “Let’s go hunt elk. Whichever of us eats the most, that’s the one we’ll kill.” He said: “Fine, I agree.” The demon set off, together with the demon he killed three elk. They killed three elk, they took a big, very big cauldron, carved them up and cooked them. The cauldron boiled and the demon said: “Come on, we’ll eat.” He started to eat together with the demon and turned his eyes up, the demon ate quickly, but the man of tales could eat nothing at all. He gathered up the bones from the demon who had closed his eyes. The demon said: “There’s nothing left.” He looked suddenly, the demon turned his eyes up and said: “Oh, it looks like you ate a lot.”

Her brothers arrived, the brothers went up the golden stairway there, went down, they came to see after her. The Russian city man had them sit there, but he did not let them near to his wife. “My wife will run away home with you.” The brothers believed this really and did not go to his wife. “The husband takes good care of her. We will bring him good hides, good clothes, and he will wear them.”

A short pillow, a narrow one, she turned the pillow now higher, now lower. The brother died. He died. She wept for him a long time, a short time, what should she do? She had so much strength, she had so much power, she buried her brother. She buried him and thought: “Where shall I go? Among forest demons, among forest spirits, where shall I go?” Well, she though: “My brother is dead and I will die too. So I will go. Over a long or a short time, how shall I live. The poor thing went, she just went and went.

Then the tsar said: “Naturally, I will vie it. Why shouldn’t I give? I’ll give you all right, but take my man to the forest on your shoulders. If my people see it, I’ll believe it right away.” The tsar’s servants were sent along with the young man. The young man showed them his herd, the servant of the tsar went up to it and could not say anything, he just gaped. He said: “This young man is like silver and like gold. I don’t know what to do with this man.” Then the tsar said: “It can’t be helped. I’ll give half of my city. I’ll give him my daughter.” The young man came and drove the herd to the banks of the tsar’s city. The tsar said: “Take my daughter, take half of my city.” The young man lived long and happily. That was my story.

Well, fine. They went and went and went, together with the tiger. They moved and moved across the ground. The ground was already coming to an end and there was no squirrel. “Yesterday,” said the tiger to the wolf, “you deceived me. Yesterday you said there were a lot of squirrels here. She has a lot of children and we want to eat. What are we, poor things, going to eat? What shall we do not, we have to eat. We’ll have to fight. We’ll have to fight. You have deceived me.” The animals threw themselves at one another. For a long time, for a short time they threw themselves at one another. But the squirrel’s home was there on top. The children were there, too. Then they said to their mother: “The wolf and the tiger are fighting.” Then the mother said: “Father said yesterday that the wolf and the tiger live on the ground to eat people. They eat us. Don’t go outside, sit at home.” And the mother left.

First Mitkhui went into one of its ears and came out the other ear, he was gleaming, there were beautiful clothes on him and everything. Melesnik entered an ear, too, and came out the other ear. He was also gleaming, his clothes were gleaming, they were both just as beautiful as the other. Then they looked–close by there was a large town. They went into this large town and there were rich people living there. The town gleamed. They went into this town and a beautiful woman was living there. Melesnik married this woman and they started to live together. This woman also had a sister. Mitkhui started to live with this sister. So they started to live for good in this town.

There lived an old man with an old woman, an old man with an old woman. Both of them were old, as old as each other, they had nobody. The old man thought: “If I were to go out to a place a bit higher, where fire-wood is found, (Behind their house there was a clearing) to the clearing. I’ll check what kind of animals go there, the traces of which animals are there.” He put on his skis and went out of the house up to the clearing. Along the edge of the clearing, along the edge of the forest he skied, his skis went this way and that. What was he up to? He went along the ski path, rushed on further. Sooner or later he reached a sort of a wooden house. It was apparently the house of a hunter. He went into the house, nobody was there, an empty house. Inside the house everything was hung over with skins: sables, animals. Whatever kinds of animal skins there are, it was full of them.
