It is because I see only too well that I am forced to bandage my eyes . Even so I see as well as people who have no bandage . When I take it off my eyes pierce through everything . Everything I look at catches fire , or , if it can not catch fire , it falls into a thousand pieces . They call me Quickeye . ' And so saying he took off his bandage and turned towards the rock . As he fixed his eyes upon it a crack was heard , and in a few moments it was nothing but a heap of sand . In the sand something might be detected glittering brightly . Quickeye picked it up and brought it to the prince . It turned out to be a lump of pure gold . ` You are a wonderful creature , ' said the prince , ` and I should be a fool not to take you into my service . But since your eyes are so good , tell me if I am very far from the Iron Castle , and what is happening there just now . ' ` If you were travelling alone , ' replied Quickeye , ` it would take you at least a year to get to it ; but as we are with you , we shall arrive there to-night . Just now they are preparing supper . ' ` There is a princess in the castle . Do you see her ? ' ' A wizard keeps her in a high tower , guarded by iron bars . ' ` Ah , help me to deliver her ! ' cried the prince . And they promised they would .
Then they all set out through the grey rocks , XXXXX the breach made by the eyes of Quickeye , and passed over great mountains and through deep woods .
