This she said knowing that her sister , who was a still more cruel and wicked witch than herself , would never allow the girl to return , but would imprison her and starve her to death . But Prunella did not suspect anything , and set out quite cheerfully . On the way she met Bensiabel . ` Where are you going , Prunella ? ' he asked . ' I am going to the sister of my mistress , from whom I am to fetch a casket . ' ` Oh poor , poor girl ! ' said Bensiabel . ` You are being sent straight to your death . Give me a kiss , and I will save you . ' But again Prunella answered as before , ' I will not kiss the son of a witch . ' ` Nevertheless , I will save your life , ' said Bensiabel , ` for I love you better than myself . Take this flagon of oil , this loaf of bread , this piece of rope , and this broom . When you reach the witch 's house , oil the hinges of the door with the contents of the flagon , and throw the loaf of bread to the great fierce mastiff , who will come to meet you . When you have passed the dog , you will see in the courtyard a miserable woman trying in vain to let down a bucket into the well with her plaited hair . You must give her the rope . In the kitchen you will find a still more miserable woman trying to clean the hearth with her tongue ; to her you must give the broom . You will see the casket on the top of a cupboard , take it as quickly as you can , and leave the house without a moment 's delay . If you do all this exactly as I have told you , you will not be killed . ' So Prunella , having listened carefully to his instructions , did just what he had told her .
She reached the house , oiled the hinges XXXXX the door , threw the loaf to the dog , gave the poor woman at the well the rope , and the woman in the kitchen the broom , caught up the casket from the top of the cupboard , and fled with it out of the house .
