Beschrijving
Guessing the Name of the Devil’s Secret Plant. The devil plants tobacco and asks a man who is unfamiliar with this plant to guess its name. (The devil threatens to kill him if he does not succeed.) The man’s wife, covered with tar and feathers, approaches the plant (ruins part of the field), so that the devil orders the supposed animal to get away from his tobacco. Thus the name of the plant is discovered [H522, K216.2.1].
