In this book, a man disguises himself as the angel Gabriel in order to seduce “Lady Numbskull,” but is exposed when the ironically-named Honest Man betrays him. After a king cuts off a lock of his hair in the night, a groom does the same to every servant in the palace to evade punishment in a story from this book. A tale from this collection about three rings bequeathed (10[1])by Melchizedek inspired (10[1])the “ring parable” from Gotthold Lessing’s play Nathan the Wise. In the final story from this collection, a marquis threatens to kill his children to test (-5[1])the patience of his wife (10[1])Griselda. (10[1])Dioneo tells the tenth and final story of each “day” (10[1])in this collection. For 10 points, name this collection of 100 tales (10[1])told by Florentines sheltering from the Black (10[1])Death, by Giovanni Boccaccio. ■END■
