here?' and she began to cry.

‘Oh, don't cry, I was only in fun,' said the ogre.

He was soon asleep again, and a yellow light shone through the
castle.

‘Come quick!' called Dschemil from the chest; ‘we must fly now
while the ogre is asleep.'

‘Not yet,' she said, ‘there is a yellow light shining. I don't
think he is asleep.'

So they waited for an hour. Then Dschemil whispered again: ‘Wake
up! There is no time to lose!'

‘Let me see if he is asleep,' said she, and she peeped in, and
saw a red light shining. Then she stole back to her cousin, and
asked, ‘But how are we to get out?'

‘Get the rope, and I will let you down.'

So she fetched the rope, the hatchet, and the pin and the
needles, and said, ‘Take them, and put them in the pocket of your
cloak, and be sure not to lose them.'

Dschemil put them carefully in his pocket, and tied the rope
round her, and let her down over the wall.

‘Are you safe?' he asked.
