` Whatever you like ! ' said Halfman . ` Come into my house , then , ' said the ogress , and he followed her . ` Look here ! ' she called to her husband , ' I have got hold of Halfman . I am going to roast him , so be quick and make up the fire ! ' So the ogre brought wood , and heaped it up till the flames roared up the chimney . Then he turned to his wife and said : ` It is all ready , let us put him on ! ' ` What is the hurry , my good ogre ? ' asked Halfman . ` You have me in your power , and I can not escape . I am so thin now , I shall hardly make one mouthful . Better fatten me up ; you will enjoy me much more . ' ` That is a very sensible remark , ' replied the ogre ; ` but what fattens you quickest ? ' ` Butter , meat , and red wine , ' answered Halfman . ` Very good ; we will lock you into this room , and here you shall stay till you are ready for eating . ' So Halfman was locked into the room , and the ogre and his wife brought him his food . At the end of three months he said to his gaolers : ` Now I have got quite fat ; take me out , and kill me . ' ` Get out , then ! ' said the ogre .
` But , ' went on Halfman , ` you and your wife had better go to invite your friends XXXXX the feast , and your daughter can stay in the house and look after me ! '
