I smell the blood of an Englishman : Be he alive, or be he dead, I'll grind his bones to make my bread. " "Poor fellow, " said Jack, "it is all up with him and his fe fa fam, he will not grind my bones to day. " He then stepped nearer to him, and discovered by his crown that this was the King of the giants, who at last uttered a deep groan and expired.
