The Elves

· In the first tale, a poor shoemaker finds his shoes being completed each morning when he hasn't had time to finish them. He and his wife prosper from this additional labor, so they stay up one night to see what's actually happening. They see two naked little elves working on the shoes, so out of pity they sew some clothes for the little elves. The elves decide not to work anymore now that they look so dashing, but the shoemaker and his wife continue to thrive.

· In the second tale, a poor servant girl goes to be godmother to the elves, and enjoys the festivities under a hollow mountain. She parties for three days, which turn out to be seven years when she returns to normal-people-land. Those tricky elves and their mucked-up sense of time.

· In the third tale, elves steal a baby and replace it with a changeling. The mother's advised to boil water in eggshells, which makes the changeling laugh and reveal itself. The elves reappear with the normal baby and the exchange is made.
