A Story about a Water-Horse [duchas:4691209]
One day a man was ploughing in his field near the lake. A water horse came out of the lake and started to eat the grass. The man saw him and went down and brought him up, and ploughed him all day. In the evening when the man was bringing the horse to a drink, he got up on his back, and rode him down to the lake. When they came near the lake the water horse sprang into the water with the man on his back.
