An Irish tale recounts a colonel tempted by the devil who bargains with haunt and rope of sand. The colonel outwits the devil, saves his soul, and endures a fearsome night as curses and bargains play out. The piece closes with a moral on gender roles and virtue under divine judgment. The narrative blends humor, superstition, and religious reflection.
