This historic book may contain numerous typos, missing text, or index issues. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher, dating back to 1906. The narrative unfolds with the tale of Hncilotto, who marries the daughter of a baker and has three children. These children, after facing severe persecution from the King's mother, eventually reveal their identity to their father through the peculiar influence of water, an apple, and a bird. The story reflects on the nature of man, portrayed as the noblest of all creatures, made in God's image and destined to rule. It emphasizes that those who conspire against such a noble being commit a grave offense. The text warns of the consequences faced by those who, in their attempts to harm others, ultimately bring about their own downfall. This theme is illustrated through the tale of four women who, in their deceitful endeavors, meet a tragic end. Set in the ancient city of Provino, the story introduces three sisters, noted for their beauty and grace, yet of humble origin as the daughters of a baker. The narrative draws parallels to various cultural tales, including those found in the Thousand and One Nights and German folklore, highlighting its enduring themes of deception and fate.
