"The Story of Jack Spriggins and the Enchanted Bean" was published in the 1734 second edition of Round About Our Coal-Fire. In Walter Crane's woodcut the harp reaches out to cling to the vine. Jack and his mother live happily ever after with the riches that Jack acquired. Jack calls to his mother for an axe and before the giant reaches the ground, cuts down the beanstalk, causing the giant to fall to his death. The giant wakes when Jack leaves the house with the harp (who calls out to the giant) and chases Jack down the beanstalk. He learns of other treasures and steals them when the giant sleeps: first a goose that lays golden eggs, then a magic harp that plays by itself. When the giant falls asleep, Jack steals a bag of gold coins and makes his escape down the beanstalk. In that time in which the giant's wife (the giantess) features, she persuades him that he is mistaken and helps Jack hide because the woman knows that he is poor. Īccording to researchers at the universities in Durham and Lisbon, the story originated more than five millennia ago, based on a wide-spread archaic story form which is now classified by folklorists as ATU 328 The Boy Who Stole Ogre's Treasure.

"Jack and the Beanstalk" is the best known of the " Jack tales", a series of stories featuring the archetypal Cornish and English hero and stock character Jack. Jacobs' version is most commonly reprinted today, and is believed to be closer to the oral versions than Tabart's because it lacks the moralising. Henry Cole, publishing under pen name Felix Summerly, popularised the tale in The Home Treasury (1845), and Joseph Jacobs rewrote it in English Fairy Tales (1890). It appeared as "The Story of Jack Spriggins and the Enchanted Bean" in 1734 and as Benjamin Tabart's moralised "The History of Jack and the Bean-Stalk" in 1807.
