Description:A man sold a hundred cattle to purchase a very good horse for his son. The son took the horse to court a beautiful lady in a distant land. On his way he met a dwarf who intended to eat the young man and his horse. The dwarf sang a song saying that the man will not be able to pass under his tree but the man responded that he will pass. Before the dwarf realised, the young man had jumped over him with his horse. He went and married the beautiful lady and on his way back he met the dwarf again who now wanted to eat him and his bride. The man hit the dwarf with a club and he ran into the bush.
