` Die , then , ' said the girl . ` Well , then , take it , you brat , ' said the old hag , ` and be off with you , and make haste with the water . ' The girl took the gold and ran out with it , and it was so bright that it shone all over the plain . As soon as she came to the river she lay down to take a drink of the water , but meanwhile the two of them had got down off the roof and thrust her , head first , into the river . The old hag began now to long for the water , and said that the girl would be running about with the gold piece all over the plain , so she asked her son to go and get her a drop of water . ' I wo n't go , ' said he , ` unless I get the gold cloak . ' ` Though I should die you sha n't have that , ' said the hag . ` Die , then , ' said the son . ` Well , then , take it , ' said the old hag , ` and be off with you , but you must make haste with the water . ' He put on the cloak , and when he came outside it shone so bright that he could see to go with it . On reaching the river he went to take a drink like his sister , but at that moment Ring and Snati sprang upon him , took the cloak from him , and threw him into the river . The old hag could stand the thirst no longer , and asked her husband to go for a drink for her ; the brats , she said , were of course running about and playing themselves , just as she had expected they would , little wretches that they were . ' I wo n't go , ' said the old troll , ` unless you lend me the gold chess-board . ' ` Though I should die you sha n't have that , ' said the hag . ' I think you may just as well do that , ' said he , ` since you wo n't grant me such a little favour . ' ` Take it , then , you utter disgrace ! ' said the old hag , ` since you are just like these two brats . ' The old troll now went out with the gold chess-board , and down to the river , and was about to take a drink , when Ring and Snati came upon him , took the chess-board from him , and threw him into the river . Before they had got back again , however , and up on top of the cave , they saw the poor old fellow 's ghost come marching up from the river . Snati immediately sprang upon him , and Ring assisted in the attack , and after a hard struggle they mastered him a second time .
When they got back again XXXXX the window they saw that the old hag was moving towards the door .
