Note 150 — Chapter VIII
Reading edition
Comparetti, vol. i. p. 212. An English version is given by Mr. Coote, “F. L. Record,” vol. ii. p. 12. Madame D'Aulnoy gives a similar story in her “Histoire d'Hypolite, Comte de Douglas,” which seems to be the original of a tale in verse quoted by Mr. Baring-Gould from Dodsley's “Poetical Collection.” See “F. L. Record,” vol. ii. p. 8; Baring-Gould, p. 547.
