"Well," said Manuel, "I won't sell it to you for money. But I will take the gold heart you have hanging around your neck for it."

So the princess had to give Manuel the gold heart for the rabbit. She put the spotted rabbit in a basket and covered it with a cloth. Then she set the basket in front of her on her horse. She said good-bye and went away.

After she had left, Manuel was sorry for the loss of one of his rabbits. He thought he would whistle for it. And as soon as he did, the rabbit came jumping back to him.

When the princess reached home, she told the king and queen what must have happened to the spotted rabbit.
