Russian Fairy Tales: A Choice Collection of Muscovite Folk-lore, Chapter II. MYTHOLOGICAL, part 13, sentence 98

The name which she bears--that of _Vyed'ma_--is a misnomer; it properly belongs either to the "wise woman," or prophetess, of old times, or to her modern representative, the woman to whom Russian superstition attributes the faculties and functions ascribed in olden days by most of our jurisprudents, in more recent times by a few of our rustics, to our own witch.

Who acts: version, name, Russian superstition · What happens: bear, be, belong, attribute, ascribe · To what, where: misnomer, faculties
