The Seven-League Boots (19)
The boots were very long and wide but, as they were magic, they were able to grow larger or smaller to fit the person who is wearing them.
Thumbkin had them on they fitted his legs and feet perfectly, as if they had been made for him.
The little lad went straight back to the ogre's house where he found his wife weeping over her seven dead daughters.
" Your husband is in great danger, " said Thumbkin.
" He has been captured by a gang of robbers who are threatening to kill him if he doesn't hand over all his gold and money.
" At the very moment they were holding the knife against his throat, he saw me and begged me to warn you of his plight.
He said to tell you to give me his whole fortune without fail, otherwise they will kill him.
LookーI have his seven-league boots, which proves all I say. "
