Leiza cave of Sara, Etsai (devil), held a school there where he taught in a short time the sciences, the arts and the letters. Mari&#039;s two sons, Atarrabi and Atxular, and other comrades studied here. The payment he demanded for his office was as follows: at the end of his studies he would keep in his service and forever one of his students chosen by lot.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Once, however, he promised not to exact such a tribute if they could tell what material one of his vessels was made of. Time passed and the school children could not penetrate this secret. One of them went to Akelarre (goat&#039;s moor) or wizard&#039;s field. He climbed a tree. In this place many witches and wizards met together with their leader Etsai.<\/p>\n<p>After dancing a little, Etsai began to converse with a witch and said to her:<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>\u201cTomorrow students will come and tell me what material my vase is from\u201d.<br \/>\u201cWhat material is this vase made of? asked the witch.<br \/>&quot;I can&#039;t tell you.&quot;<br \/>&quot;Won&#039;t you tell me?
