This story is curiously interviewer with
the myths of Psyche. Semele. Pandora,

why we should not actually look for
the beginnings of "Blue Beard in the

visited Russia. Sicily and Mongolia as
fox, and at last, as cat, to have
| roamed over Italy, Sweden and Nor
| way, France and England. In some
of these places the story. owing to an
episode in which the hero is punished
for ingratitude to his benefactor, has
the advantage of moral, but in most
of the old versions Puss's evil practices
are undisguised, and. contrary to all
the orthodox canons, he is left smiling
at the end of the chapter.
