He
fell asleep next to the rock, but when he woke up the rock had gone
- and was replaced by a magic wood, with beautiful girls dancing
round the trees.
Hubert
danced with them, and as he left he promised he would return the
following night. When he got home, he told Madeleine about the strange
events, and she warned him not to go the next night, but Hubert
decided to go anyway.
Madeleine
told the parish priest about her suspicions, and the priest told
her to take a crucifix and follow Hubert. When Madeleine reached
Rocqueberg, she saw Hubert, merrily dancing.
But
there were no beautiful girls - just ugly old witches. Madeleine
held the crucifix high above her head and ran towards the witches
- who vanished, shrieking, whilst Hubert collapsed, unconscious.
