said the sheriff ; `` I will do that ! '' So he jumped up , and went to the chimney in one bound . `` Just tell me when you have got hold of the shovel , '' said the Master-maid . `` Well , I have hold of it now , '' said the sheriff . `` Then you may hold the shovel , and the shovel you , and pour red-hot coals over you , till day dawns , '' said the Master-maid . So the sheriff had to stand there the whole night and pour red-hot coals over himself , and , no matter how much he cried and begged and entreated , the red-hot coals did not grow the colder for that . When the day began to dawn , and he had power to throw down the shovel , he did not stay long where he was , but ran away as fast as he possibly could ; and everyone who met him stared and looked after him , for he was flying as if he were mad , and he could not have looked worse if he had been both flayed and tanned , and everyone wondered where he had been , but for very shame he would tell nothing . The next day the attorney came riding by the place where the Master-maid dwelt . He saw how brightly the hut shone and gleamed through the wood , and he too went into it to see who lived there , and when he entered and saw the beautiful young maiden he fell even more in love with her than the sheriff had done , and began to woo her at once . So the Master-maid asked him , as she had asked the sheriff , if he had a great deal of money , and the attorney said he was not ill off for that , and would at once go home to get it ; and at night he came with a great big sack of money -- this time it was a four-bushel sack -- and set it on the bench by the Master-maid . So she promised to have him , and he sat down on the bench by her to arrange about it , but suddenly she said that she had forgotten to lock the door of the porch that night , and must do it . `` Why should you do that ? '' said the attorney ; `` sit still , I will do it . '' So he was on his feet in a moment , and out in the porch . `` Tell me when you have got hold of the door-latch , '' said the Master-maid . `` I have hold of it now , '' cried the attorney . `` Then you may hold the door , and the door you , and may you go between wall and wall till day dawns . '' What a dance the attorney had that night ! He had never had such a waltz before , and he never wished to have such a dance again . Sometimes he was in front of the door , and sometimes the door was in front of him , and it went from one side of the porch to the other , till the attorney was well-nigh beaten to death .
At first he began XXXXX abuse the Master-maid , and then to beg and pray , but the door did not care for anything but keeping him where he was till break of day .
