Next day the Red Knight was hanged , as he richly deserved , and there was a new marriage feast for the prince and princess . -LSB- Lapplandische Mahrchen . -RSB- Pivi and Kabo When birds were men , and men were birds , Pivi and Kabo lived in an island far away , called New Claledonia . Pivi was a cheery little bird that chirps at sunset ; Kabo was an ugly black fowl that croaks in the darkness . One day Pivi and Kabo thought that they would make slings , and practice slinging , as the people of the island still do . So they went to a banyan tree , and stripped the bark to make strings for their slings , and next they repaired to the river bank to find stones . Kabo stood on the bank of the river , and Pivi went into the water . The game was for Kabo to sling at Pivi , and for Pivi to dodge the stones , if he could . For some time he dodged them cleverly , but at last a stone from Kabo 's sling hit poor Pivi on the leg and broke it . Down went Pivi into the stream , and floated along it , till he floated into a big hollow bamboo , which a woman used for washing her sweet potatoes . ` What is that in my bamboo ? ' said the woman . And she blew in at one end , and blew little Pivi out at the other , like a pea from a pea-shooter . ` Oh ! ' cried the woman , ` what a state you are in ! What have you been doing ? ' ` It was Kabo who broke my leg at the slinging game , ' said Pivi . ` Well , I am sorry for you , ' said the woman ; ` will you come with me , and do what I tell you ? ' ' I will ! ' said Pivi , for the woman was very kind and pretty .
She took Pivi into a shed where she kept her fruit laid him on a bed of mats , and made him as comfortable XXXXX she could , and attended to his broken leg without cutting off the flesh round the bone , as these people usually do .
