Didnt you ask for anything first? said the woman.
No, said the man. What should I have asked for?
Oh, said the woman. It is terrible living in this shack. It stinks and is filthy. You should have asked for a little cottage for us. Go back and call him. Tell him that we want to have a little cottage. He will surely give it to us.
Oh, said the man. Why should I go back there?
Look, said the woman, you did catch him, and then you let him swim away. He will surely do this for us. Go right now.
The man did not want to go, but neither did he want to oppose his wife, so he went back to the sea.
When he arrived there it was no longer clear, but yellow and green. He stood there and said:
Mandje! Mandje! Timpe Te! Flounder, flounder, in the sea! My wife, my wife Ilsebill, Wants not, wants not, what I will
The flounder swam up and said, What does she want then?
Oh, said the man, I did catch you, and now my wife says that I really should have asked for something. She doesnt want to live in a filthy shack any longer. She would like to have a cottage.
Go home, said the flounder. She already has it.
The man went home, and his wife was standing in the door of a cottage, and she said to him, Come in. See, now isnt this much better?
