` Your duty requires you to win it back for your mother . But the task is a very difficult one , and full of peril , Jack . Have you courage to undertake it ? ' ' I fear nothing when I am doing right , ' said Jack . ` Then , ' said the lady in the red cap , ` you are one of those who slay giants . You must get into the castle , and if possible possess yourself of a hen that lays golden eggs , and a harp that talks . Remember , all the giant possesses is really yours . ' As she ceased speaking , the lady of the red hat suddenly disappeared , and of course Jack knew she was a fairy . Jack determined at once to attempt the adventure ; so he advanced , and blew the horn which hung at the castle portal . The door was opened in a minute or two by a frightful giantess , with one great eye in the middle of her forehead . As soon as Jack saw her he turned to run away , but she caught him , and dragged him into the castle . ` Ho , ho ! ' she laughed terribly . ` You did n't expect to see me here , that is clear ! No , I sha n't let you go again . I am weary of my life . I am so overworked , and I do n't see why I should not have a page as well as other ladies . And you shall be my boy . You shall clean the knives , and black the boots , and make the fires , and help me generally when the giant is out . When he is at home I must hide you , for he has eaten up all my pages hitherto , and you would be a dainty morsel , my little lad . '
While she spoke she dragged Jack XXXXX into the castle .
