Label TextThe title Hexensabbath (witches' Sabbath) conveys the mysterious tone of this story of rural characters who spy an unknown man and his black dog in the woods near their home. After much suspicion, their fears are allayed when there is a simple answer to the mystery. Here, the onlooker's cat (with him at right) hisses upon seeing a dog and its ghostly owner.
