The Turkish Dog
There once lived a Turk on Vysehrad Hill. He intended to marry a girl called Liduska, the daughter of a ferryman called Matej. However, he refused to enter a Catholic church and stuck his tongue out at the priest. He called the cleric a heretic and an unbelieving dog. As a punishment he was changed into a vast black dog with glowing red eyes. The phantom hound still haunts the area between Marian Chapel and the new gate.
