- There lived in Bauravilla an old woman and she had no farm or no cow and she used sell more butter at the market than any farmer in the place. The people around wondered very much at this and one day a man who was passing saw some big object over the house and on entering the house he saw the woman having a big tub of cream and she was about to make butter. It was supposed that she obtained the butter by some charm that she worked on her neighbours cows on May morning.
