Información sobre este tipo cuentístico: Description: An unborn child is promised to the devil in a crisis [M211, S211, S241]. When some years later the promised child is to be fetched by the devil, he takes refuge in a holy place (church, altar, cemetery) in a magic circle reading the bible (clergyman draws a ring around him) [K218.1]. The devil cannot tempt him outside the circle [D1381.11, G303.16.19.15] so the contract is voided. Cf. Types 400, 518, 974.
