从前有一个农夫和他的老婆，村里的牧师迷恋着他的老婆，早就希望和她痛痛快快地过一天，农夫的老婆也有此意。一天，牧师对农妇说：「听着，我的朋友，我想出一招，我们可以痛痛快快地在一起过一天。我来告诉你，礼拜三那天，你必须躺在床上别起来，告诉你丈夫你病了，使劲呻吟，就跟真的病了一样，你一直得装病装到礼拜天，那天我要布道，在布道中我会说无论谁家里有生病的孩子、生病的丈夫、生病的老婆、生病的父亲、生病的母亲、生病的兄弟姐妹或其他任何的病人，谁就要去意大利的高克利山朝圣，在那里用一个铜板买一配克的桂树叶，生病的孩子、生病的丈夫、生病的老婆、生病的父亲、生病的母亲、生病的兄弟姐妹或其他任何的病人马上就能药到病除，恢复健康。
「我会想法子的。农妇立即答应。礼拜三一到，农妇就按商定的办法躺在床上大声地呻吟，不停地折腾，她的丈夫为她想尽了办法，可丝毫不见效，礼拜天到了，农妇嘱咐：「我已经病入膏肓，来日不多了，我想在临死前作一件事，就是聆听牧师今天的布道。农夫闻言道：「啊哈，我的宝贝，你可不能动，如果你起来，你的身体会更糟糕的。这样吧，我去参加布道，我会仔细听的，然后把牧师的话一字不漏地告诉你。
「那好啊，农妇说：「去吧，用心听，回来后给我重複一遍。农夫去听布道，牧师讲无论谁家里有生病的孩子、生病的丈夫、生病的老婆、生病的父亲、生病的母亲、生病的兄弟姐妹或其他任何的病人，谁就该去意大利的高克利山朝圣，在那里用一个铜板买一配克的桂树叶，生病的孩子、生病的丈夫、生病的老婆、生病的父亲、生病的母亲、生病的兄弟姐妹或其他任何病人马上就能药到病除，恢复健康。谁要去朝圣，弥撒完后找他，他会提供装桂树叶的口袋和铜板。听完牧师的一番话，最高兴的就数农夫了，他随即找到牧师，拿到装桂树叶的口袋和铜板。事情办妥后，他就往家走，还没进家门就喊道：「哈哈！亲爱的老婆，现在你简直就跟病好了一样！牧师在布道中说无论谁家里有生病的孩子、生病的丈夫、生病的老婆、生病的父亲、生病的母亲、生病的兄弟姐妹或其他任何病人，谁就要去意大利的高克利山朝圣，在那里用一个铜板买一配克的桂树叶，生病的孩子、生病的丈夫、生病的老婆、生病的父亲、生病的母亲、生病的兄弟姐妹或其他任何病人马上就会药到病除，恢复健康，我现在已经从牧师那儿拿到口袋和铜板，为了你早日康复，我这就起程。说完他就走了。他刚刚离去，牧师就到了，牧师进来的时候，农妇还没起来。
放下这一对暂且不提，先去看看农夫，他步履如飞，分秒不停，为了早到高克利山心急如焚，半路上遇到了他的侃山老友。他的侃友是个作鸡蛋生意的，他刚在市场卖完鸡蛋出来。「上帝保佑，侃友问道：「你这么着急是上哪儿去呀？「感谢上帝，我的朋友，农夫答：「我的老婆生病了，我今天去听了牧师的布道，他讲无论谁家里有生病的孩子、生病的丈夫、生病的老婆、生病的父亲、生病的母亲、生病的兄弟姐妹或其他任何病人，谁就要去意大利的高克利山朝圣，在那里用一个铜板买一配克的桂树叶，生病的孩子、生病的丈夫、生病的老婆、生病的父亲、生病的母亲、生病的兄弟姐妹或其他任何病人马上就会药到病除，恢复健康，我已经从牧师那儿拿到口袋和铜板，现在去朝圣。「听着，侃友，鸡蛋贩子对农夫说，「你是真的傻到连这种鬼话都相信吗？你知道那意味甚么吗？牧师想和你老婆单独风流一天，不愿意被别人看见，所以他编造了个借口把你支开。
「天地良心！农夫叫道：「我不能相信这是真的！「过来，侃友说：「我告诉你怎么做。坐进我的鸡蛋筐里，我把你背回家，到时你自己看吧。事情就这么定了，侃友把农夫放到筐里，背着他往家走。
当他们到家时，啊哈！这里可真是热闹非凡呀！农家院里的家禽几乎都被农妇杀光了，她还烙了薄饼，牧师也在场，他随身带着提琴。侃友敲敲门，农妇问道是谁。「是我，侃友，鸡蛋贩子答道，「我想借住一宿。鸡蛋在市场上没卖掉，我只好把鸡蛋背回家，天已经黑了，而且鸡蛋太沉，我实在背不动啦。
「可真是的，我的朋友，农妇说：「你来得太不凑巧了，可是你已经到了这儿，没办法。进来吧，坐在火炉边上的板凳上歇歇脚吧。然后她把侃友和他背上的筐子安置到火炉旁边的板凳上。牧师和农妇享尽风流，无比快乐，最后，牧师提议：「听着，我亲爱的朋友，你的歌唱得很好听，给我唱首歌吧。「噢，农妇说，「我现在唱不了。年轻的时候，我的确唱得不错，可那个时代已经是一去不复返啦。
「来吧，牧师再次请求，「唱首情歌。
农妇不再坚持，她开始唱道：
「意大利有座山叫高克利，我把我的丈夫支到那里。
接着是牧师唱：
「我希望他离去一年不回，桂树叶口袋归他我永远不想。
哈里路亚。
这时在后房的侃友开始唱（我得告诉你那农夫叫希尔德布朗），侃友唱到道：
「你在干甚么，我亲爱的希尔德布朗，你准备在火炉边的凳子上呆上多长？
哈里路亚。
然后农夫在筐子里也跟着唱：
「今天我唱歌是气不打一处来，在这筐里我是一刻也不想呆。

从前有个国家来了一头野猪。它践踏耕地、咬杀牲畜，还用尖利的獠牙咬人，人们为此痛苦不堪。国王宣佈只要有人能将王国从这一灾难中拯救出来，他就会大大地赏赐他。可是野猪太大了，而且强不可敌，因此谁也不敢接近它藏身的那片森林。最后国王宣佈：谁若能捕获或者杀死那头野猪，他就能娶国王的独生女为妻。
在乡下住着两兄弟，是穷人家的孩子。老大狡猾精明却缺乏勇气；弟弟单纯而心地善良。两兄弟说他们愿意接受这个危及生命的使命。国王对他们说：「为了让你们能确实找到那头野兽，你们两人必须分头从两个方向进森林。於是，哥哥从西头走，弟弟从东边进。
弟弟走了没多远就遇到一个小个子男人。他手里握着一支黑色长矛，对弟弟说：「我把这支长矛给你，因为你心地纯洁善良；你拿着这长矛，只管大胆去斗那野猪，长矛会帮你的。
弟弟谢过那小个男子，扛起长矛，毫不畏惧地继续赶路。
不久，他看到了那头野猪，便用长矛对准了朝他扑来的野兽。野猪气疯了，它沖得太快太猛，结果长矛把它的心脏划成了两半。弟弟扛起巨兽往回走。
森林另一端的入口处有座房子，人们在那里饮酒、跳舞作乐。弟弟来到那儿时，哥哥早已坐在里面了，他以为野猪反正逃不出他的手心，於是先喝点酒壮胆。当他看到弟弟带着战利品从森林里返回时，邪恶的心里充满了嫉妒，无法平息。他对弟弟喊道：「进来吧，亲爱的弟弟，喝杯酒歇歇。
从无戒心的弟弟走了进去，把好心男人给他长矛、自己又如何用长矛制服野猪的经过告诉了哥哥。
哥哥留弟弟一起喝酒直到天色将晚，然后一道离开了小屋，在黑暗中赶路。他们来到小河上的一座桥跟前，哥哥让弟弟走在前面，走到桥心时，哥哥对准弟弟的后脑勺狠狠一击，弟弟倒下死了。哥哥将弟弟埋在桥下，自己扛起野猪去向国王领赏，似乎野猪是他猎杀的。他娶了国王的独生女为妻。当有人问他为甚么弟弟没有回来时，他说：「准是野猪把他给吃了。人们也就信以为真了。
可是甚么都瞒不过上帝的眼睛，这罪孽总有一天要真相大白的。
几年以后，有个牧羊人赶着羊群过桥，一眼看到沙子下面有根雪白的骨头。他觉得这是做口吹乐器的好材料，於是爬下桥，将骨头捡了起来。他用骨头给自己的号角做了个吹口。可他第一次用它吹响号角时大吃了一惊，因为骨头吹口自顾自唱起了小调：
「啊，朋友，你在用我的骨头吹奏，我在这河边沉睡已久。
哥哥杀我夺走了野猪，娶的妻子是国王之女。

有一次，公鸡对母鸡说：「现在正是核桃成熟的时候，我们要趁着松鼠还没有把核桃全部吃完，赶紧进山去吃个够。「对呀，母鸡答道，「走吧，我们可以好好地享受享受。牠们於是就上了山，而且因为天气晴朗，一直在山上呆到天黑。不知道牠们究竟是因为吃多了撑着呢，还是因为牠们突然变得心高气傲起来，牠们竟然不愿意步行回家。公鸡用核桃壳做了一辆小车。车子做好后，小母鸡坐了上去对公鸡说：「你只管在前面拉车吧。「让我拉车？公鸡嚷了起来，「我宁愿步行回家也不愿意拉车。不行，我决不答应！要我坐在车上当个车伕还可以，可要我拉车，这根本不可能。
就在牠们这样争论的时候，一只鸭子嘎嘎嘎地叫着对牠们说：「你们这两个小偷，是谁同意你们上我的核桃山的？等着，我要让你们吃点苦头！牠说着便张开阔嘴，向公鸡扑过去。但是公鸡并非等闲之辈，毫不示弱地向鸭子反击，对着鸭子猛踢猛蹬，弄得鸭子只好低头求饶，并且愿意接受惩罚，给牠们拉车。小公鸡坐在车伕的位子上，高高地叫了一声：「鸭子，尽量给我跑快点！小车便飞快地向前驶去。牠们走了一程后，遇到了两个赶路的，一个是大头针，一个是缝衣针。「停一停，停一停！它俩喊道。然后又说，天快要黑了，它们寸步难行，而且路上又髒得要命，所以问能不能搭一会儿车。它俩还说，它们在城门口裁缝们常去的酒店里喝啤酒，结果呆得太晚了。由於它俩都骨瘦如柴，佔不了多少位子，公鸡便让它们上了车，条件是要它们保证不踩到牠和母鸡的脚。天黑了很久以后，牠们来到了一家旅店前。牠们不愿意在黑夜里继续赶路，再加上鸭子的脚力又不行，跑起来已经是左摇右摆，牠们便进了店里。店主人起初提出了许多异议，说甚么店已经住满了，而且他觉得牠们不是甚么高贵的客人。可牠们说了很多好话，说要把小母鸡在路上生的鸡蛋给他，还把每天能生一只蛋的鸭子留给他，他终於答应让牠们在店里过夜。

孩子们，我这故事听起来像是捏造的，但它却是千真万确的。故事是从我爷爷那听来的，他每次给我讲时，总说：
「这当然是真的，要不然就不给你讲了。
这故事是这样的。在收穫季节的一个星期天早上，荞麦花开得正盛，阳光明媚，微风和煦地吹拂着田间的草梗，云雀在空中欢唱，蜜蜂在荞麦间嗡嗡地飞来飞去，人们正穿着盛装去教堂做礼拜。万物欢喜，刺蝟也不例外。
刺蝟正双手叉腰，靠门站着，享受这清晨的和风，悠闲地哼着小曲，这首歌和他平时星期天早上唱的歌没有甚么两样。他悠闲地半哼半唱着，突然想起了要趁自己的女人正给孩子们洗澡的当儿，去看看他的萝蔔长势如何。这些萝蔔其实并不是他的，只是离他家很近，他和他的家人就习以为常地靠吃这些萝蔔度日，他也理所当然地把它当成是他自己的了。说干就干，只见他关上身后的门，随即就踏上了去萝蔔地的路。他在离家不远的地方绕过了地边仅有的一丛灌木，正准备到地里去时，他看到了为同样目的出门的野兔，他也想去看看自己的白菜长得怎样了。刺蝟看到野兔时友好地和他道了声早安，但野兔自以为是位不同寻常的绅士，表现得非常傲慢无礼，连刺蝟的问候也不搭理，只是以一种很轻蔑的态度对刺蝟说：「你怎么这么一大清早就在地边跑？「我在散步。刺蝟说。「散步？野兔微微一笑，「我想你可以用你的腿干点更好的事吧。刺蝟听到这回答非常气愤，他一切都可忍受，只有自己的腿不能提，因为大自然给了他一双短短的弯腿。於是他对野兔说：「你以为你的腿能比我的腿派上更大的用场？「我正是这样认为的。野兔说。「这个我们可以验证一下，我打赌如果我们赛跑，我一定会胜过你。刺蝟说道。「真是滑稽，瞧你那对短短的腿。不过我倒很乐意，既然你有这种荒诞的想法，我们来赌点甚么呢？野兔说道。「一个金路易和一瓶白兰地。刺蝟说道。「一言为定。野兔说。「来，击掌为证，我们现在就可以开始。「不，刺蝟说，「没必要这么急嘛，我还没吃过早饭呢！我得先回家，吃完饭。半小时后我就会回来。
於是刺蝟离开了，野兔对这一切也很满意。在回家的路上刺蝟想：「野兔仗着他的腿长，很得意，但我会设法胜过他的。他或许是个人物，但他却是个愚蠢透顶的傢伙，他会为他所说的话招报应的。当他回到家时，他对自己的女人说：「老婆，快点穿好衣服，跟我到地里走一趟。「出了甚么事？他女人问道。「我和野兔打了个赌，赌一个金路易和一瓶白兰地。我要和他赛跑，你也得到场。「天哪，老公，他女人叫道，「你没有毛病吧，你是不是疯了，你怎么会想到要和野兔赛跑呢？「住嘴，你这女人，刺蝟叫道，「这是我的事，男人的事你最好少插嘴。快去穿上衣服跟我走。刺蝟的老婆拿他没办法，不管她愿意不愿意，她都得听他的。
於是他们一起上路了。刺蝟告诉她的女人说：「现在听好我的话，你瞧，我会把这块地作为我们的赛跑路线，他跑一畦，我跑一畦。我们会从那头上跑下来，现在要做的就是呆在这畦的底下，当他到达你身旁那畦的终点线时，你就对他叫：我早就在这里了。
他们到地里后，刺蝟告诉他的女人该呆的地方，然后他就往头上走去。他到头上的时候，野兔已经在那儿了。「可以开始了吗？野兔问道。「当然，刺蝟说，「咱们一起跑。说着，他们就各自在自己的菜畦上准备好了。野兔数：「一、二、三，跑。然后就像一阵风似地冲下了这块地。但那只刺蝟只跑了两三步远就蹲在了菜畦沟里，并安安静静地呆在了那儿。
当野兔全速冲到那头时，刺蝟的女人迎了上去，叫道：「我早就在这里了。野兔大吃一惊，十分奇怪。由於刺蝟的女人长得和刺蝟一样，他认为除了刺蝟外没人会叫他。然而，野兔想：「这不公平。於是叫道，「再跑一次，咱们得重新来一次。他又一次像风一样往前跑了，他看起来像是在飞。但刺蝟的女人仍安安静静地呆在那儿。当野兔跑到菜地的顶端时，刺蝟就在那儿对他叫道：「我早就在这里了。这下野兔可气坏了，叫道：「重跑一次，我们再来一次。「没问题，刺蝟答道，「对我来说，你愿意跑多少次都行。於是野兔又跑了七十三次，刺蝟总是奉陪着。每次野兔跑到底端或顶端时，刺蝟和他的女人总叫：「我早就在这里了。
到了第七十四次时，野兔再也跑不动了，跑到一半就倒在地上，嘴角流着血，躺在地上死了。刺蝟拿走了他赢的白兰地和金路易，把他的女人从菜畦里叫了出来，欢天喜地回家了。要是还活着的话，他们准还住在那儿呢！

从前，有个穷人。他穷得连自己的独生儿子都养不起。于是他儿子说：爸爸，您的处境太困难了，我也是您的负担。这样倒不如让我出去闯一闯，挣口饭吃。”父亲为儿子祈祷祝福，非常难过地和儿子分手了。恰在这个时候，有个强国的国王正在作战，这个年轻人就跟随着国王上了战场。他们遇到敌人，开始战斗了。在枪林弹雨中，身边的战友都倒下了，甚至有的军官也战死了，活着的都想逃跑。这时候年轻人走上前来为大家鼓气，他大声喊道：不能让我们的祖国灭亡！”于是，人们都跟随他向前冲，打垮了敌军。国王听说多亏了这个年轻人才取得胜利的消息，就把他提升到很高的位置，并给了他很多财宝。他在王宫里是一人之下，万人之上。
国王有个公主，非常美丽，只是性情有些古怪。她选择丈夫的条件是：如果公主先死，活着的丈夫必须和她一起埋葬，否则，就不能成为她的丈夫。公主说：如果他真心爱我，我死了，他为什么还要活着呢？”同样，如果丈夫先死了，她也准备跟着一起进坟墓。这个古怪的誓约，吓退了所有的求婚人。可是，公主的美貌，让这个年轻人陶醉。他义无返顾地向国王要求娶公主为妻。国王说：你知道应该答应她些什么吗？”如果公主死了，而我还活着，我就会和她一起进坟墓。”年轻人回答说：我爱她爱得那么强烈，深沉，就顾不得什么危险了。”于是国王同意了。他们举行了非常隆重的婚礼。
他们一起幸福，快乐地过了一些日子。突然，年轻的王后患了重病，医生们都认为不可救药了。王后死了，年轻的国王回想起从前的誓约，想到就要被活埋，不由得直打哆嗦。老国王派了卫兵，看住了所有的城门。看来，这悲惨的命运是不能逃避了。在年轻的王后遗体装进王家墓穴的那一天，那年轻的国王也被一同带进墓穴。墓穴的门关上了，还上了锁。
在棺材的旁边放着一张桌子，上面有四支蜡烛，四个面包和四瓶葡萄酒。这些东西用完了，他也就要饿死了。他在无限痛苦和悲伤中，每天只吃一点面包，喝一小口酒。可是他依然意识到死期越来越近了。正当他一动不动向前看着的时候，突然见到墓穴的一角爬出一条蛇，直向棺材爬去。他想，蛇是来咬公主尸体的。于是，他拔出宝剑说：只要我还活着，你就别想碰她。”他把这条蛇砍成四段。不一会儿，又一条蛇爬了过来，看见这条蛇死了并被分了尸，就立刻退回去了。随后那条蛇叼着三张绿叶又出现了。然后，那条蛇把死去的蛇按原样摆好，在每个伤口处放上一张绿叶。不大一会，那断开的地方，又接到了一起。死了的蛇，又复活了，动弹了。接着，两条蛇很快地爬走了。可绿叶还留在那儿。这不幸的国王，看到这一切，开始考虑：这绿色的叶子具有能使死蛇复活的神奇效力，不知会不会让死人复活。于是他拣起三片叶子，一片放在妻子的嘴上，另两片放在眼睛上。刚放好，王后的血就在血管里流动起来。她苍白的脸上出现了红润。她吸了一口气，睁开了眼睛，说：哎呀，我这是在哪里呀？”他回答道：你在我的身边，我亲爱的妻子！”他又把发生的一切和她复活的经过讲给她听。然后，他给王后喝了点酒，吃了点面包。她有了力气，站了起来。于是，他们到墓穴口，敲打着大门，大声呼喊起来。卫兵听到后，急忙报告了国王。国王亲自来了，打开了大门，看到他们既健壮，又精神，自然是十分惊喜。年轻的国王带回来了三片蛇的叶子，把它们交给了仆人说：好好保存着，要随身携带，说不定以后遇到什么危难，它会帮助我们的！”
