  • Il Novellino

    LXXXVII
    How a man went to shrive himself

    A man went to a priest to confession; and among other things he said: I have a sister-in-law and my brother is far away; and whenever I go home, her familiarity is so great that she down on my lap; how should I behave?

    The priest answered; if she did so to me she would be well requited for it.
