The Devil Undone

15

On the same spot1 where the pub called The Devil Undone now stands there
used to2 be a cobblers shop where a man called Zebediah Bayliss lived and worked
with his wife. He was the son of a farm laborer and worked on a farm himself before
he became a cobbler3. He got married when he was 19 and his wife never stopped
complaining4 about how poor they were. On his fortieth birthday Zebediah was at
the end of his tether5. Everything had gone wrong that day and his wife had not
stopped complaining since daybreak.
He badly needed6 money. Ill give you my soul7 for a pot of gold, he cried.
Suddenly he saw a strange figure standing in front of him. It was the devil himself.
Ill give you your pot of gold, Zebediah, he said, if in seven years time you give
me your soul.
Zebediah was so desperate8 for money that he agreed. The devil disappeared9
and there on the floor was a great bag full of gold. The cobbler and his wife lived
comfortably from that moment. Zebediah only worked when he felt like it and his
wife had nothing to complain about it.
Seven years later, however, the devil appeared10 again, Are you ready to keep
your bargain? the devil asked Zebediah. Yes, Im ready, Zebediah replied, but
first I would like you to give me one more wish11.
Very well, replied the devil, but make it simple. We have a long way to go.
Zebediah made his wish, I wish you were back in hell12 never to return he
cried.
With a crash the devil flew through the window onto the back of an old happily
which ran off great speed.
The devil never returned and Zebediah and his wife lived happily for the rest of
their lives.
When their cottage was pulled down, the pub they built in its place was first
called The Devil Upon Dun, but this later became changed to The devil Undone.
