And where am I ? ' ` The old witch had enchanted you , but now she is dead and you are free . We will wake up the other knights that she laid under her spells , and then we will go . ' This they did , and , after sharing amongst them the jewels and gold they found in the castle , each man went his way . The two brothers remained together , the elder tightly grasping the ointment which had brought him back to life . They had much to tell each other as they rode along , and at last the younger man exclaimed , ' O fool , to leave such a beautiful wife to go and fight a witch ! She took me for her husband , and I did not say her nay . ' When the elder brother heard this a great rage filled his heart , and , without saying one word , he drew his sword and slew his brother , and his body rolled in the dust . Then he rode on till he reached his home , where his wife was still sitting , weeping bitterly . When she saw him she sprang up with a cry , and threw herself into his arms . ` Oh , how long have I waited for thee ! Never , never must you leave me any more ! ' When the old king heard the news he welcomed him as a son , and made ready a feast , and all the court sat down . And in the evening , when the young man was alone with his wife , she said to him , ` Why would you not let me touch you when you came back , but always thrust me away when I tried to put my arms round you or kiss you ? ' Then the young man understood how true his brother had been to him , and he sat down and wept and wrung his hands because of the wicked murder that he had done . Suddenly he sprang to his feet , for he remembered the ointment which lay hidden in his garments , and he rushed to the place where his brother still lay . He fell on his knees beside the body , and , taking out the salve , he rubbed it over the neck where the wound was gaping wide , and the skin healed and the sinews grew strong , and the dead man sat up and looked round him . And the two brothers embraced each other , and the elder asked forgiveness for his wicked blow ; and they went back to the palace together , and were never parted any more .
