The
old
woman
had
only
pretended
to
be
so
kind
;
she
was
in
reality
a
wicked
witch
,
who
lay
in
wait
for
children
,
and
had
only
built
the
little
house
of
bread
in
order
to
entice
them
there
.
When
a
child
fell
into
her
power
,
she
killed
it
,
cooked
and
ate
it
,
and
that
was
a
feast
day
with
her
.
Witches
have
red
eyes
,
and
can
not
see
far
,
but
they
have
a
keen
scent
like
the
beasts
,
and
are
aware
when
human
beings
draw
near
.
22
When
Hansel
and
Grethel
came
into
her
neighborhood
,
she
laughed
maliciously
,
and
said
mockingly
,
"
I
have
them
,
they
shall
not
escape
me
again
!
"
Early
in
the
morning
before
the
children
were
awake
,
she
was
already
up
,
and
when
she
saw
both
of
them
sleeping
and
looking
so
pretty
,
with
their
plump
red
cheeks
,
she
muttered
to
herself
,
"
That
will
be
a
dainty
mouthful
!
"
Then
she
seized
Hansel
with
her
shrivelled
hand
,
carried
him
into
a
little
stable
,
and
shut
him
in
with
a
grated
door
.
He
might
scream
as
he
liked
,
that
was
of
no
use
.
Then
she
went
to
Grethel
,
shook
her
till
she
awoke
,
and
cried
,
"
Get
up
,
lazy
thing
,
fetch
some
water
,
and
cook
something
good
for
thy
brother
,
he
is
in
the
stable
outside
,
and
is
to
be
made
fat
.
When
he
is
fat
,
I
will
eat
him
.
"
Grethel
began
to
weep
bitterly
,
but
it
was
all
in
vain
,
she
was
forced
to
do
what
the
wicked
witch
ordered
her
.
23
And
now
the
best
food
was
cooked
for
poor
Hansel
,
but
Grethel
got
nothing
but
crab-shells
.
Every
morning
the
woman
crept
to
the
little
stable
,
and
cried
,
"
Hansel
,
stretch
out
thy
finger
that
I
may
feel
if
thou
wilt
soon
be
fat
.
"
Hansel
,
however
,
stretched
out
a
little
bone
to
her
,
and
the
old
woman
,
who
had
dim
eyes
,
could
not
see
it
,
and
thought
it
was
Hansel
's
finger
,
and
was
astonished
that
there
was
no
way
of
fattening
him
.
When
four
weeks
had
gone
by
,
and
Hansel
still
continued
thin
,
she
was
seized
with
impatience
and
would
not
wait
any
longer
.
"
Hola
,
Grethel
,
"
she
cried
to
the
girl
,
"
be
active
,
and
bring
some
water
.
Let
Hansel
be
fat
or
lean
,
to-morrow
I
will
kill
him
,
and
cook
him
.

Ah
,
how
the
poor
little
sister
did
lament
when
she
had
to
fetch
the
water
,
and
how
her
tears
did
flow
down
over
her
cheeks
!
"
Dear
God
,
do
help
us
,
"
she
cried
.
"
If
the
wild
beasts
in
the
forest
had
but
devoured
us
,
we
should
at
any
rate
have
died
together
.
"
"
Just
keep
thy
noise
to
thyself
,
"
said
the
old
woman
,
"
all
that
wo
n't
help
thee
at
all
.
"
25
Early
in
the
morning
,
Grethel
had
to
go
out
and
hang
up
the
cauldron
with
the
water
,
and
light
the
fire
.
"
We
will
bake
first
,
"
said
the
old
woman
,
"
I
have
already
heated
the
oven
,
and
kneaded
the
dough
.
"
She
pushed
poor
Grethel
out
to
the
oven
,
from
which
flames
of
fire
were
already
darting
.
"
Creep
in
,
"
said
the
witch
,
"
and
see
if
it
is
properly
heated
,
so
that
we
can
shut
the
bread
in
.
"
And
when
once
Grethel
was
inside
,
she
intended
to
shut
the
oven
and
let
her
bake
in
it
,
and
then
she
would
eat
her
,
too
.
But
Grethel
saw
what
she
had
in
her
mind
,
and
said
,
"
I
do
not
know
how
I
am
to
do
it
;
how
do
you
get
in
?
"
"
Silly
goose
,
"
said
the
old
woman
,
"
The
door
is
big
enough
;
just
look
,
I
can
get
in
myself
!
"
and
she
crept
up
and
thrust
her
head
into
the
oven
.
Then
Grethel
gave
her
a
push
that
drove
her
far
into
it
,
and
shut
the
iron
door
,
and
fastened
the
bolt
.
Oh
!
then
she
began
to
howl
quite
horribly
,
but
Grethel
ran
away
,
and
the
godless
witch
was
miserably
burnt
to
death
.
26
Grethel
,
however
,
ran
like
lightning
to
Hansel
,
opened
his
little
stable
,
and
cried
,
"
Hansel
,
we
are
saved
!
The
old
witch
is
dead
!
"
Then
Hansel
sprang
out
like
a
bird
from
its
cage
when
the
door
is
opened
for
it
.
27
How
they
did
rejoice
and
embrace
each
other
,
and
dance
about
and
kiss
each
other
!
And
as
they
had
no
longer
any
need
to
fear
her
,
they
went
into
the
witch
's
house
,
and
in
every
corner
there
stood
chests
full
of
pearls
and
jewels
.
"
These
are
far
better
than
pebbles
!
"
said
Hansel
,
and
thrust
into
his
pockets
whatever
could
be
got
in
,
and
Grethel
said
,
"
I
,
too
,
will
take
something
home
with
me
,
"
and
filled
her
pinafore
full
.
"
But
now
we
will
go
away
.
"
said
Hansel
,
"
that
we
may
get
out
of
the
witch
's
forest
.

When
they
had
walked
for
two
hours
,
they
came
to
a
great
piece
of
water
.
"
We
can
not
get
over
,
"
said
Hansel
,
"
I
see
no
foot-plank
,
and
no
bridge
.
"
"
And
no
boat
crosses
either
,
"
answered
Grethel
,
"
but
a
white
duck
is
swimming
there
;
if
I
ask
her
,
she
will
help
us
over
.
"
Then
she
cried
,
29
"
Little
duck
,
little
duck
,
dost
thou
see
,
Hansel
and
Grethel
are
waiting
for
thee
?
There
's
never
a
plank
,
or
bridge
in
sight
,
30
Take
us
across
on
thy
back
so
white
.
"
