Expert Answer
Pahom is a peasant farmer in the village who desires land of his own. He boasts that if he had enough land, he would not fear the devil himself. It is now that Pahom desires to get more land and manages to borrow enough money to buy land of his own and sets out on a journey to buy more land.
Ultimately, Pahom finds himself at the land of the Bashkirs'. He can buy all the land he can walk around in one day. At sun up, Pahom sets out. He walks around lush, green land. Unfortunately, he tries to cover too much land. The deal is that Pahom gets to have all the land he can walk around from sun up to sun down.
Pahom has become greedy. He tries to cover more land than he can comfortably cover in one day. At sundown, as Pahom nears the starting point, he falls down dead. He now only needs enough land to be buried in. Because of his greed, Pahom dies trying to gain too much land.
