Examples of using "Василису" in a sentence and their english translations:
Again the frog turned into Vasilissa, the wise maiden.
The sight filled Vasilissa with horror and she stopped as still as a post buried in the ground.
They both rose up, pushed Vasilissa out of the house and locked the door, crying: "Thou shalt not come in till thou hast fetched the fire."
The merchant's wife sent Vasilissa into the forest each day, hoping she might meet the old witch and be devoured.
Every day, while her two daughters were working indoors, the merchant's wife would send Vasilissa on one errand or other into the forest, either to find a branch of a certain rare bush or to bring her flowers or berries.
Now there came a time when it became necessary for the merchant to leave his home and to travel to a distant Tsardom. He bade farewell to his wife and her two daughters, kissed Vasilissa and gave her his blessing and departed, bidding them say a prayer each day for his safe return.
