Cossack Fairy Tales and Folk Tales, The Serpent-wife, sentence 48

Then she said to the man, "Now kiss me once, but see to it that I do not bite thee!"--Then he kissed her once, and she wound herself round a branch of a tree and asked him, "What dost thou feel within thee?"--He answered, "At the moment when I kissed thee it seemed to me as if I knew everything that was going on in the world!"--Then she said to him again, "Kiss me a second time!"--"And what dost thou feel now?" she asked when he had kissed her again.--"Now," said he, "I understand all languages which are spoken among men."--Then she said to him, "And now kiss me a third time, but this will be for the last time."

Who acts: wife, Serpent, it, thou, this · What happens: say, kiss, see, not bite, woun, ask · To what, where: man, wife, bush, thee, Serpent, thou · Speech: someone speaks here
