And one winter he caught a cold, could not recover and died. He has a beautiful wife Daria, a son and daughter, and a father and mother.
Father dug a grave on the frozen ground and was buried. Returning from the funeral, his wife Daria found that it was cold in the house. She went out for firewood - and they ran out.... I had to take a horse and go to the forest for firewood . After chopping wood, she lost her head from grief, and has already talked to the Frost that overtook her in the forest, The story ends with Daria standing and freezing under a large pine tree in the forest...
