Annotation: No one can have read or heard popular tales without meeting minor elements of all tales, such as the jealous sister familiar to us in the story of Cinderella, and the cruel stepmother or taskmaster who sets the tasks. It is in the combination that the artist shows his power; and of the tales of the world, it is hardly too much to say that this tale of Cupid and Psyche is the most beautiful and charming.
