“Once upon a time there was a child who was willful and would not do as her mother wished.”

“Then the mother herself was obliged to go to the grave, and strike the arm with a rod, and when she had done that, it was drawn in; …at last the child had rest beneath the ground.”

“To those who do not come against it, the wall does not appear”
