2. People say that in Chelmska Góra there is St Jadwiga’s army sleeping. There is a large iron door, behind which the knights are sleeping. The sleeping knights’ beards have grown very long. They are so long that they can even be wrapped around a man several times. The army is supposed to fight evil in order to remove it from the world.

3. There was a smith living near the mountains, who was really poor. One dark night a knight came to see him and told him to make a sack full of horseshoes and five sacks full of horseshoe nails. He also told the smith not to tell anyone about his visit. The smith spent long nights and days making the horseshoes.

4. When he finished, he took the heavy sacks to a cave on the top of the mountain. When he got there, he received another assignment. His new job was to shoe all the sleeping knights’ horses and shorten their hoofs. The smith disappeared for a whole year.

5. When he finally finished his assignment, the knight ordered him to sweep away the pieces of hoofs he had cut, put them into a sack and take them home. The poor smith did as the knight told him to. When he arrived home, he got really surprised.

6. He found out that the pieces of hoofs he had put into the sack had turned into gold. The smith didn’t lack bread ever since. Soon, he found a woman, who became his wife. They had a couple of kids and lived happily ever after.
