Then, by the help of poles, or such contrivances as were only known to the old folks, they placed the quoit or capstone over the head of Denbras, which hid him for ever from the light of day; and, before the sun sunk below the hill-tops, they had raised as noble a barrow over the giant as any to be found on Towednack hills; yet they were not without adding, time after time, to the carp of the giant's resting-place.
Then, aided by poles or devices known only to the elderly, they positioned the quoit or capstone over Denbras's head, concealing him forever from daylight; and before the sun dipped below the hilltops, they erected a noble mound over the giant as grand as any on Towednack hillsides. Yet, they continued adding to the mound time and again.
