" well , just as i turned into the outside cave , who should i see watching near the door but poor molly . she looked round all terrified , and says she to me in a whisper , " i 'm brought here to nurse the child of the king and queen of the fairies ; but there is one chance of saving me . all the court will pass the cross near templeshambo next friday night , on a visit to the fairies of old ross . if john can catch me by the hand or cloak when i ride by , and has courage not to let go his grip , i 'll be safe . here 's the king . do n't open your mouth to answer . i saw what happened with the ointment . "
