There was
once a poor man who, in order to make himself seem more important to a king,
told him that his daughter could spin straw into gold .The king ordered thegirl to be brought to him, and he locked her in a room full of straw. He said
he would return next day, and if the straw had not been spun into gold she
would be killed .
The
girl did not know what to do, but the little man appeared and told her if she
gave him a present he would spin the straw into gold. She gave him a necklace
and he did what he had promised and then disappeared. The king was very pleased
to see all the gold, but because he was greedy he put the girl into a bigger
room full of straw and again threatened her with her life if she didn’t spin it
into gold. Once more the little man appeared, she gave him a ring this time, he
spun all the straw into gold and then disappeared.
The greedy king wanted still more
gold, so he repeated the whole thing one more time. The little man appeared,
but the girl didn’t have anything to offer him, so he said that he would spin the straw into gold if she promised to
give him the first child that was born to her. The girl agreed and he spun
the straw into gold and disappeared.
When the girl saw all the gold he asked if
she would marry him, and she said yes. Some time later the Queen gave birth
to a baby, and suddenly the little man appeared again and said that she had to give him her child . She was horrified, and
begged the little man to let her keep her child, but he said that she had
promised and so had to keep her promise. The Queen began to cry and the
little man took pity on her and said that
if she could find out her name in three days then she could keep her child.
