asked he . ' I have cleaned it , ' answered he . ` Well , since thou wert so active to-day , to-morrow thou wilt thatch this byre with a feather from every different bird , or else thy blood shall pay for it , ' and he went out . Before the sun was up , the youth took his bow and his quiver and set off to kill the birds . Off to the moor he went , but never a bird was to be seen that day . At last he got so tired with running to and fro that he gave up heart . ` There is but one death I can die , ' thought he . Then at midday came the giant 's daughter . ` Thou art tired , king 's son ? ' asked she . ' I am , ' answered he ; ` all these hours have I wandered , and there fell but these two blackbirds , both of one colour . ' ` Lay down thy weariness on the grass , ' said she , and he did as she bade him , and fell fast asleep . When he woke the girl had disappeared , and he got up , and returned to the byre . As he drew near , he rubbed his eyes hard , thinking he was dreaming , for there it was , beautifully thatched , just as the giant had wished . At the door of the house he met the giant . ` Hast thou thatched the byre , king 's son ? ' ' I have thatched it . ' ` Well , since thou hast been so active to-day , I have something else for thee ! Beside the loch thou seest over yonder there grows a fir tree . On the top of the fir tree is a magpie 's nest , and in the nest are five eggs .
Thou wilt bring me those eggs XXXXX breakfast , and if one is cracked or broken , thy blood shall pay for it . '
