Then he turned his face to the wall and died . There was great mourning in the hut for many days , but at length the son rose up , and calling to his greyhound , his cat and his falcon , he left the house saying that he would bring back something for dinner . Wandering over the plain , he noticed a troop of gazelles , and pointed to his greyhound to give chase . The dog soon brought down a fine fat beast , and slinging it over his shoulders , the young man turned homewards . On the way , however , he passed a pond , and as he approached a cloud of birds flew into the air . Shaking his wrist , the falcon seated on it darted into the air , and swooped down upon the quarry he had marked , which fell dead to the ground . The young man picked it up , and put it in his pouch and then went towards home again . Near the hut was a small barn in which he kept the produce of the little patch of corn , which grew close to the garden . Here a rat ran out almost under his feet , followed by another and another ; but quick as thought the cat was upon them and not one escaped her . When all the rats were killed , the young man left the barn . He took the path leading to the door of the hut , but stopped on feeling a hand laid on his shoulder . ` Young man , ' said the ogre -LRB- for such was the stranger -RRB- , ` you have been a good son , and you deserve the piece of luck which has befallen you this day . Come with me to that shining lake yonder , and fear nothing . ' Wondering a little at what might be going to happen to him , the youth did as the ogre bade him , and when they reached the shore of the lake , the ogre turned and said to him : ` Step into the water and shut your eyes ! You will find yourself sinking slowly to the bottom ; but take courage , all will go well . Only bring up as much silver as you can carry , and we will divide it between us . ' So the young man stepped bravely into the lake , and felt himself sinking , sinking , till he reached firm ground at last . In front of him lay four heaps of silver , and in the midst of them a curious white shining stone , marked over with strange characters , such as he had never seen before . He picked it up in order to examine it more closely , and as he held it the stone spoke . ` As long as you hold me , all your wishes will come true , ' it said .
` But hide me in your turban , and then call XXXXX the ogre that you are ready to come up . '
