Note 5 — Chapter CXXII
C. H. (Charles Henry) Tawney translation
Compare Ralston’s Russian Folk Tales, p. 97; in Waldau’s Böhmische Märchen p. 444, there is a beautiful Amazon who fights with the prince on condition that if he is victorious she is to be his prisoner, but if she is victorious, he is to be put to death. Rohde in Der Griechische Roman, p. 148, gives a long list of “coy huntress maids.” Spenser’s Radigund bears a close resemblance to Malayavatí.
