Twenty-Two Goblins translated by Arthur Ryder (Source)
- There is an old brahman that lives on a river and he has a beautiful daughter
- Three young boys come out the father and ask for her hand
- The young girl could not decide which one to choose
- The girl dies
- The three boys do something different to cope with their grief
- One boy becomes a monk and travels to other countries
- He eats dinner in a house where a baby cries and his mom throws him into the fire
- The master of the house raises the body back to life
- The monk goes back and raises the young girl back to life
- They all fought over who was to take her as his wife
- The King answered the riddle saying the one who slept by her ashes should be her husband
- The goblin went back to his tree
