Story told by bachelor of bertha to children
The man invents a story that begins like the previous one. He tells the children about a girl named Bertha who is so "horribly good" that she even has three medals for that. One day the prince notices how good Bertha has been and decides to reward her. Bertha is allowed to take a walk in the prince's gardens, where normally no children are permitted. She enjoys her walk until the wolf shows up. Bertha hides behind a myrtle bush and almost manages to escape, but her medals clicking against each other give her away and the wolf eats her at once.
