Description

A bad lord and a good chatelaine. She helps the poor a lot and for her charities sells all her jewelry. etc...

His lord and master forbid him to carry his alms. It will be death for her and those who help her break her orders.

One day a great misfortune moves him. In spite of the prohibition she fills her dress, clothes, bread, etc... and believing not to be seen she goes out to bring her alms. Her husband sees her, follows her, and suddenly stands before her. He almost brutalizes her, she doesn't want to show what she has in her dress. But faced with the threats, she spreads her arms, and roses have replaced what she had. The lord falls on his knees, repentant, and subsequently, he will be permitted to do all the charities she wishes.
