The Daughter

A father dotes blindly upon his daughter, never disciplines her and indulges her in all things. However, when he discovers that she has fallen pregnant by a lover, he beats her soundly. Furious, his daughter conspires to have him killed, and lies to her lord, telling him that her father is a ruffian come to harrass her. The lord believes her, her father is executed, and after his death the daughter lives a life of luxury and self-indulgence.
