Long, long ago, in the Kingdom of Fife, there lived a guidman and his very strange wife. The man was a quiet and respectable person, but his wife was carefree and flighty. Indeed, she was so odd that some of the neighbours thought she might even be a witch! While they sat by their fires in the early evening the neighbours sometimes saw the woman disappear into the gloaming and often she stayed out all night. When she returned in the morning she was pale and tired but she never told anyone where she had been. She never even told her poor husband what she had been doing. Try as he might, he could not find out where she went. Each time he caught her slipping through the door she was gone by the time he followed her. One night the worried man decided to wait up for her return. As soon as his wife came in through the door he jumped up.
