This he bit clean through, and as if to justify the fable, that whomsoever Janko bit with his envenomed fangs was a child of death the old vihodar fell to the ground like a log of wood, and when the apprentices sprang forward to tear the delinquent away from him, the headsman was already dead.
Janko really was awfully ashamed this time when he had again to confess to the Little Fox that he had forgotten her warning and had touched the golden bridle. "Janko! Janko!" the Little Fox said. "Where are your wits! Now what shall we do?" Then Janko told the Little Fox of the king's offer: "He will give me the Golden Horse provided I get for him the Golden Maiden who has never seen the sun.
Take hold of my tail and away we'll go." Janko took hold of the Little Fox's tail and away they went a greater distance than before. In spite of going so quickly it took them a long time but whether it was weeks or months I don't know. Whichever it was when they stopped Janko didn't feel in the least tired or breathless.
"Perhaps I can enchant myself into looking like the Golden Horse." With that the Little Fox leaped up in the air, turned this way and that, and lo! you might have thought her the Golden Horse except that her tail was still a fox's tail. When they reached the garden of the Golden Apple-Tree, Janko left the Golden Horse and the Golden Maiden outside and took the fox horse in to the king.
The Count of Zips and the Lord Lieutenant of Saros have already, under their hand and seal, appointed him public executioner in his father's stead, with jurisdiction over the whole hill country, and he has just been accomplishing his masterpiece on Janko, who is still roaring for pain and will roar two days and two nights longer, so that all Eperies will hear him.
But all this will be in the days to come when the flat keyboard will be superseded by a Janko many-banked clavier contrivance, when Mr. Krehbiel's oriental srootis are in use and Mr. Apthorp's nullitonic order, no key at all, is invented. Then too a new Chopin may be born, but I doubt it.
Unless you do this they will plot against the Golden Maiden and you may not be able to protect her." So Janko and the maiden kissed each other as a brother and sister might and the maiden went her way and Janko returned to his father's house.
The king was delighted and at once had his servants deliver to Janko the Golden Apple-Tree. When Janko was safely gone, the king called all his courtiers together and showed them the fox horse. "See my Golden Horse!" he said. "Isn't it the most beautiful horse in the world!" "It is! It is!" they all told him.
When you reach the Golden Apple-Tree you will see two long poles on the ground a wooden pole and a golden pole. Take the wooden pole and beat down some of the golden fruit. Don't touch the golden pole. Remember!" So Janko crept into the second garden and succeeded in passing all the guards of the twenty-four watches when their eyes were wide open and staring straight at him.
Take the wooden spade and dig up the Vine as quickly as you can. Under no condition touch the golden spade. Now, Janko, do you understand?" Yes, Janko thought he understood. He slipped into the garden and the first thing he saw were twelve fierce looking guards who were staring at him with great round eyes.
