Reading Notes A; The Bad Wife

Russian Fairy Tales by W. R. S. Ralston (1887)

The bad wife is a story about a woman who treats her husband bad.

The woman would betray anything the husband asked her to do and would do the total opposite

The man found an endless pit under a bush of berries

He would trick his wife into falling into the pit

He then threw a rope into the pit and he pulled out a demon

The demon was so scared of the bad wife he wanted to be out on earth

The demon cut a deal with the peasant that he would torment people and the peasant would save him.

They did this to many people until they did it to the boyars daughter

The peasant then tricked the demon into thinking the bad wife was back and the demon went back into the hole.
