Early one morning they set out. When they had gone a long way, they saw before them a great castle upon a hill.

Look, Sir George! said Una. "That is the castle in which my father and mother are shut up. The dragon must be near."

As she spoke, they heard a great roar, and the dragon rushed down the hill toward them.
