 Lauretta narrates another tale about Bruno and Buffalmacco and their practical jokes.This story is probably just a vehicle for Boccaccio's ability to coin word play, just as tale VI, 10 did.A Sicilian woman cunningly conveys from a merchant that which he has brought to Palermo; he, making a show of being come back with far greater store of goods than before, borrows money of her, and leaves her in lieu thereof water and tow.
