 the Green Forest, minding his own affairs, when he met a great giant. Being afraid of the great giant, he ran with all his might and hid in a hollow log. No sooner was he inside that hollow log than up came the great giant and began to beat on that hollow log with a great club. Every blow made a terrible noise inside that hollow log.

It filled him with dreadful fear and despair. Yes, indeed, it was a bad dream, a very, very bad dream!
