The Lottery Wager Between a Miser and a Servant in Padua
In Padua near Santa Sofia an elderly miser Balducci keeps Bettina as his servant. After she buys a lottery ticket he explodes at the risk to his fortune, a cat ruins china, and Bettina possibly wins 100,000 zwanzigers. The priest mediates as Balducci marries Bettina for security, then learns she sold the ticket. The tale centers on fortune, marriage, remorse, and repentance.
