Roman charity:
The daughter that was breastfeeding her old father..... Once upon a time, there was a king. This king had an elder brother who was married, and had a daughter who was as beautiful as a day full of hope. The devil inspired the King his brother was trying to kill him to steal his kingdom. As soon as the idea occurred to him, he ordered immediately to his soldiers to throw the poor guy in a dark cell where he would not be given neither bread, nor water, giving him no choice but starving. Guards seized him and threw him in jail to make sure he could no longer threaten his brother the king. The daughter of the king's brother, seeing that his father had been imprisoned without a reason, immediately suspected evil wills of the monarch.
She eventually learns that the king has decided to let her father die in prison. As soon as she learns this, she runs to see the king , and falling to his feet, says : "King, my master, the only thing I ask you is to let me visit my father twice a day in the prison where you put him." The king to whom the request did not cause any damage, gives her what she wants. He however enjoins his soldiers to check the young girl when she enters the prison, in case she would try to bring bread or other food to her father. He also orders to make a hole into the wall of the cell through by which the father and daughter will be able to talk. The girl, seeing that she has managed to wrest his father's death, goes to the bathroom and washes herself; which gives her milk. Then she goes to see her father in prison. Through the hole, she gives him one of her breasts and tells her father to suck and feed himself. She does so every day, and her father does not need any other food. Seeing that after such a long time his brother is still alive, the king suspects his niece to use witchcraft to feed her father. He therefore orders his soldiers not to let the daughter approach her father. The girl at the news that the King is forbidding her to see her father, feels pain because she sees that her plans are about to fail and her father will die sooner or later. She does not know what to do. She leaves the little town and sees a smith wh
