the many - furred creature now ran into the kitchen , cooked the king 's bread - soup , and when the cook had gone , she laid the gold reel in the dish . when the king found the reel at the bottom , he had the many - furred creature brought to him , and then he saw the white finger , and the ring which he had put on her hand in the dance . then he took her hand and held her tightly , and as she was trying to get away , she undid the fur - cloak a little bit and the star - dress shone out . the king seized the cloak and tore it off her . her golden hair came down , and she stood there in her full splendour , and could not hide herself away any more . and when the soot and ashes had been washed from her face , she looked more beautiful than anyone in the world . but the king said , ' you are my dear bride , and we will never be separated from one another . ' so the wedding was celebrated and they lived happily ever after .
what did the king see when he saw the many-furred creature ?
the white finger .
