THE GOLDEN SPINNING WHEEL
THE STORY OF KING DOBROMIL AND THE GOOD DOBRUNKA
THE GOLDEN SPINNING WHEEL
THERE was once a poor woman who had twin daughters. The girls were exactly alike in face and feature but utterly different in disposition. Dobrunka was kind, industrious, obedient, and everything a good girl ought to be. Zloboha, her sister, was spiteful, disobedient, lazy, and proud. In fact, she had just about as many faults as a person could have. Yet strange to say the mother loved Zloboha much better and made everything easy for her.
