The Kobold in Büschdorf:

There was an old, very rich woman in Büschdorf who had a kobold. The kobold sat on her kitchen stove all day, and she conversed with him. Sometimes the neighbors would stand beneath her windows and listen, and hear the kobold say: “Say, old woman, don’t you wish for anything?” “Well, sonny”, she would reply, “I wish for a nice golden chain” or “I wish for a bag full of ducats”, or whatever else she wished for on that particular day. Then the kobold would immediately fly out of the chimney and return with whatever she had desired.
