"one day one of the men there took me home, but his daughter turned away her head each time she looked at me. at last her father enquired her reason for doing this, and she replied: 'father, that is not a dog, but a man whose wife is a witch, and it is she who has changed him into a dog. i will restore him again to his former shape.' so she sprinkled water upon me, and i forthwith regained the shape of a man. i then asked her if i might not punish my wife, and she gave me some water and told me to go and sprinkle it upon the wicked witch.
