She replied, "An old man shall never marry me," and cast the feather into the fire. Her brother appeared, and killed all the inhabitants of the city, as well as the King, and gave the woman to Hamed-ben-Ceggad. A taleb made a proclamation in these terms: "Is there anyone who will sell himself for 100 mitquals?" A man agreed to sell himself.
"It is the Lord who created them thus, but if it pleases God I will accompany you, for you are Hamed-ben-Ceggad." They arrived at the house of the woman with the silver ornaments, and Hamed said to the inhabitants, "Give us this woman, that we may take her away." "Very well," said her brother, the ogre.
"A partridge is flying in the sky; let one of you strike it." Hamed-ben-Ceggad killed it. They gave him the woman, but before her departure her brother gave her a feather and said to her, "When anyone shall try to do anything to you against your will, cast this feather on the hearth and we will come to you." People told the woman, "The old Sultan is going to marry you."
The man said to them, "You are Hamed-ben-Ceggad, who built the house of coral-wood?" "Who told you that?" "A bird that passed flying in the sky told me. I will accompany you." "Come," said Hamed. After they had pursued their way some time, they met a man with long ears. "By the Lord," they said, "we have only small ears, and this man has immense ones."
The inhabitants of the city were jealous of him, and went to the Sultan and said: "Hamed-ben-Ceggad is brave. He could bring you the tree of coral-wood and the palm-tree of the wild beasts." The King said to him, "If you are not afraid, bring me the tree of coral-wood and the palm-tree of the wild beasts." "It is well," said Hamed. And the next day he took away all the people of the city.
The fairy came to meet her as usual, and gave her money. The people surprised them together. But the fairy never came out of the fountain again. There was in a city a man named Hamed-ben-Ceggad. He lived alone with his mother. He lived upon nothing but the chase. One day the inhabitants of the city said to the King: "Hamed-ben-Ceggad is getting the better of you."
The shepherd said: "You are Hamed-ben-Ceggad, who built the house of coral-wood?" "Who told you?" "A bird that flew into the sky." He added, "I will go with you." "Come," said Hamed. The shepherd took the millstone from his neck, and the sheep were changed into stones. On the way they met a naked man, who was rolling in the snow.
