He shortly afterwards again encounters the witch, and she leaves him so strange in his manner that his sweetheart takes him to the village church, where the holy influence enables him to regain his right senses. Once again he meets with the witch, but this time in the garb of a lovely maiden, who leads him to the water, where she vanishes. The lad plunges in after her, but is drowned, and his dead body is recovered later. Meanwhile, his sweetheart has accused the old witch of being the cause of his death, and the villagers seize her and bind her to a stake. Heaped around with faggots, a fire is lit, but to the terror of all the flames take the form of a group of flowers, and the old witch again changes into a lovely maiden and slowly vanishes.
