Description

Two very different sisters, Rosella and Myrtle, have encounters with the fairy Ethelinda. Rosella is kind and helpful, and as a reward, jewels and gems tumble out of her mouth whenever she speaks. Myrtle, on the other hand, is rude and spiteful, and her punishment is that bugs and vipers slither out of her mouth. Initially, Ethelinda believes she has administered justice appropriately. However, she later discovers that Rosella has been imprisoned by a greedy prince, and Myrtle is enjoying herself despite her punishment.
