I shall deliver the monster to Kraken, who will stay him with his flashing sword.

For I tell thee that the noble Kraken, who was believed to be dead, will return among the Penguins and he shall slay the dragon.

And from the creature's belly will come forth the little children whom he has devoured." "What you declare to me, O virgin," cried the apostle, "seems wonderful and beyond human power." "It is," answered the virgin Orberosia.

"But learn, O Mael, that I have had a revelation that as a reward for their deliverance, the Penguin people will pay to the knight Kraken an annual tribute of three hundred fowls, twelve sheep, two oxen, three pigs, one thousand eight hundred bushels of corn, and vegetables according to their season; and that, moreover, the children who will come out of the dragon's belly will be given and committed to the said Kraken to serve him and obey him in all things.

If the Penguin people fail to keep their engagements a new dragon will come upon the island more terrible than the first.
