Chapter Five

1. And when Leah awoke, the king was waiting for her. And he said unto her, "I shall marry thee, and thou must not refuse."

2. And Leah gladly accepted, and had forgotten what the little man had asked.

3. And in time, she bore unto the king a little daughter, and remembered her promise to the little man, and thought, "I shall not let him come night unto me."

4. And, lo, on the same day of the childs birth, the little man appeared, and said unto the queen,

5. "Wot not ye that ye promised the child unto me? Give her unto me as ye promised."

6. And Leah held her child close, and said unto him, "Nay, nay, not her. Please, if thou wilt, take not the child."

7. And he said unto her, "if ye can guess my name by the end of three days, then thou canst keep thy child."

8. And Leah said, "Surely, that cannot be hard. I shall tell thee at the end."

9. And the little man left, for, surely she would never guess such a name as his.

10. And the queen laughed, for she would surely guess it.
