The Seven-League Boots (15)
As soon as Thumbkin heard the ogre snoring again, he woke up his brothers.
He told them to get dressed immediately and followed him.
The boys crept quietly out of the house and climbed over the garden wall.
They ran through the night, stumbling from fear and not knowing which way to go.
When the ogre woke up next morning, he said to his wife, " Go upstairs and dress those little fools who came here yesterday. "
His wife was very surprised at her husband's kindness, not suspecting for a minute that the way he meant her to dress them was as meat !
But when she went upstairs a terrible sight was awaiting her.
She was horrified when she saw her seven daughters with their throats cut, and fainted at onceーeven though she was an ogress !
The ogre wondered why his wife was taking such a long time doing the job he had ordered her to do.
