What do you wish?
I wish, said the beggar.
That you should bring me the silken greyhound and the silken hare.
The horse brought them immediately, and the beggar gave them to the goldsmith.
The goldsmith went to the palace and sold them for much money to the eldest prince.
On Sunday the eldest brother married the eldest princess, and everybody went to a field and played quit, and the beggar burned another golden hare, and immediately the green horse appeared and brought him a green garment.
The beggar put it on and went into the field, and played quits with the company.
After he had played for a whole hour everybody had lost.
He alone had won much money, and scattering on the grass the money he had won, he went back to the goldsmith's shop and put the blanket on his head once more.
The next Sunday it was arranged that his second brother should marry the second princess.
She said she would not wed him unless he could bring her the golden beaker and the golden jug which were in the house of the dragon.
The king sent for all the goldsmiths in the country and asked them to get him the golden beaker.
And once more the beggar told his master that he could get it, and that all he needed were two baskets full of chestnuts and two jars of wine.
And being left alone in a room, he ate the nuts and drank the wine.
Then he burned one of the hares, and immediately the red horse appeared, and he said to him,
Bring me the golden beaker and the golden jug.
And the horse brought them, and the beggar went to the king, and the king brought them for a large sum of money.
Again they went to play coints in order to celebrate the second wedding.
and the beggar burned another of the hares, and immediately the red horse came to him, and brought him a red garment, and when he put it on he went and played coits.
After he had played for a long time all had lost save himself, and he went away, leaving the ground strewn with gold coins.
