All the young folks turned to see who was coming in and as soon as they looked upon his face they fell dead.

Only the old woman and the baby were left; for the Evil One did not see them.
When he was gone, the old woman snatched up the baby and hurried off down to the river.

As she was hurrying along she met an old man.
"Where are you going ?" said he.

Then the old woman saw that it was the Evil One himself.

She was afraid but she did not want him to know it.
