original ¶1

There were once a man and a woman who had long in vain wished for a child. At length the woman hoped that God was about to grant her desire. These people had a little window at the back of their house from which a splendid garden could be seen, which was full of the most beautiful flowers and herbs. It was, however, surrounded by a high wall, and no one dared to go into it because it belonged to an enchantress, who had great power and was dreaded by all the world. One day the woman was standing by this window and looking down into the garden, when she saw a bed which was planted with the most beautiful rampion - rapunzel, and it looked so fresh and green that she longed for it, and had the greatest desire to eat some. This desire increased every day, and as she knew that she could not get any of it, she quite pined away, and began to look pale and miserable. Then her husband was alarmed, and asked, what ails you, dear wife. Ah, she replied, if I can't eat some of the rampion, which is in the garden behind our house, I shall die. The man, who loved her, thought, sooner than let your wife die, bring her some of the rampion yourself, let it cost what it will. At twilight, he clambered down over the wall into the garden of the enchantress, hastily clutched a handful of rampion, and took it to his wife. She at once made herself a salad of it, and ate it greedily. It tasted so good to her - so very good, that the next day she longed for it three times as much as before. If he was to have any rest, her husband must once more descend into the garden. In the gloom of evening, therefore, he let himself down again. But when he had clambered down the wall he was terribly afraid, for he saw the enchantress standing before him. How can you dare, said she with angry look, descend into my garden and steal my rampion like a thief. You shall suffer for it. Ah, answered he, let mercy take the place of justice, I only made up my mind to do it out of necessity. My wife saw your rampion from the window, and felt such a longing for it that she would have died if she had not got some to eat. Then the enchantress allowed her anger to be softened, and said to him, if the case be as you say, I will allow you to take away with you as much rampion as you will, only I make one condition, you must give me the child which your wife will bring into the world. It shall be well treated, and I will care for it like a mother. The man in his terror consented to everything, and when the woman was brought to bed, the enchantress appeared at once, gave the child the name of rapunzel, and took it away with her. Rapunzel grew into the most beautiful child under the sun. When she was twelve years old, the enchantress shut her into a tower, which lay in a forest, and had neither stairs nor door, but quite at the top was a little window. When the enchantress wanted to go in, she placed herself beneath it and cried, rapunzel, rapunzel, let down your hair to me. Rapunzel had magnificent long hair, fine as spun gold, and when she heard the voice of the enchantress she unfastened her braided tresses, wound them round one of the hooks of the window above, and then the hair fell twenty ells down, and the enchantress climbed up by it. After a year or two, it came to pass that the king's son rode through the forest and passed by the tower. Then he heard a song, which was so charming that he stood still and listened. This was rapunzel, who in her solitude passed her time in letting her sweet voice resound. The king's son wanted to climb up to her, and looked for the door of the tower, but none was to be found. He rode home, but the singing had so deeply touched his heart, that every day he went out into the forest and listened to it. Once when he was thus standing behind a tree, he saw that an enchantress came there, and he heard how she cried, rapunzel, rapunzel, let down your hair. Then rapunzel let down the braids of her hair, and the enchantress climbed up to her. If that is the ladder by which one mounts, I too will try my fortune, said he, and the next day when it began to grow dark, he went to the tower and cried, rapunzel, rapunzel, let down your hair. Immediately the hair fell down and the king's son climbed up. At first rapunzel was terribly frightened when a man, such as her eyes had never yet beheld, came to her. But the king's son began to talk to her quite like a friend, and told her that his heart had been so stirred that it had let him have no rest, and he had been forced to see her. Then rapunzel lost her fear, and when he asked her if she would take him for her husband, and she saw that he was young and handsome, she thought, he will love me more than old dame gothel does. And she said yes, and laid her hand in his. She said, I will willingly go away with you, but I do not know how to get down. Bring with you a skein of silk every time that you come, and I will weave a ladder with it, and when that is ready I will descend, and you will take me on your horse. They agreed that until that time he should come to her every evening, for the old woman came by day. The enchantress remarked nothing of this, until once rapunzel said to her, tell me, dame gothel, how it happens that you are so much heavier for me to draw up than the young king's son - he is with me in a moment. Ah. You wicked child, cried the enchantress. What do I hear you say. I thought I had separated you from all the world, and yet you have deceived me. In her anger she clutched rapunzel's beautiful tresses, wrapped them twice round her left hand, seized a pair of scissors with the right, and snip, snap, they were cut off, and the lovely braids lay on the ground. And she was so pitiless that she took poor rapunzel into a desert where she had to live in great grief and misery. On the same day that she cast out rapunzel, however, the enchantress fastened the braids of hair, which she had cut off, to the hook of the window, and when the king's son came and cried, rapunzel, rapunzel, let down your hair, she let the hair down. The king's son ascended, but instead of finding his dearest rapunzel, he found the enchantress, who gazed at him with wicked and venomous looks. Aha, she cried mockingly, you would fetch your dearest, but the beautiful bird sits no longer singing in the nest. The cat has got it, and will scratch out your eyes as well. Rapunzel is lost to you. You will never see her again. The king's son was beside himself with pain, and in his despair he leapt down from the tower. He escaped with his life, but the thorns into which he fell pierced his eyes. Then he wandered quite blind about the forest, ate nothing but roots and berries, and did naught but lament and weep over the loss of his dearest wife. Thus he roamed about in misery for some years, and at length came to the desert where rapunzel, with the twins to which she had given birth, a boy and a girl, lived in wretchedness. He heard a voice, and it seemed so familiar to him that he went towards it, and when he approached, rapunzel knew him and fell on his neck and wept. Two of her tears wetted his eyes and they grew clear again, and he could see with them as before. He led her to his kingdom where he was joyfully received, and they lived for a long time afterwards, happy and contented.

She at once made herself a salad of it, and ate it greedily. It tasted so good to her - so very good, that the next day she longed for it three times as much as before. If he was to have any rest, her husband must once more descend into the garden. In the gloom of evening, therefore, he let himself down again. But when he had clambered down the wall he was terribly afraid, for he saw the enchantress standing before him. How can you dare, said she with angry look, descend into my garden and steal my rampion like a thief. You shall suffer for it. Ah, answered he, let mercy take the place of justice, I only made up my mind to do it out of necessity. My wife saw your rampion from the window, and felt such a longing for it that she would have died if she had not got some to eat. Then the enchantress allowed her anger to be softened, and said to him, if the case be as you say, I will allow you to take away with you as much rampion as you will, only I make one condition, you must give me the child which your wife will bring into the world. It shall be well treated, and I will care for it like a mother. The man in his terror consented to everything, and when the woman was brought to bed, the enchantress appeared at once, gave the child the name of rapunzel, and took it away with her. Rapunzel grew into the most beautiful child under the sun. When she was twelve years old, the enchantress shut her into a tower, which lay in a forest, and had neither stairs nor door, but quite at the top was a little window. When the enchantress wanted to go in, she placed herself beneath it and cried, rapunzel, rapunzel, let down your hair to me. Rapunzel had magnificent long hair, fine as spun gold, and when she heard the voice of the enchantress she unfastened her braided tresses, wound them round one of the hooks of the window above, and then the hair fell twenty ells down, and the enchantress climbed up by it. After a year or two, it came to pass that the king's son rode through the forest and passed by the tower. Then he heard a song, which was so charming that he stood still and listened. This was rapunzel, who in her solitude passed her time in letting her sweet voice resound. The king's son wanted to climb up to her, and looked for the door of the tower, but none was to be found. He rode home, but the singing had so deeply touched his heart, that every day he went out into the forest and listened to it. Once when he was thus standing behind a tree, he saw that an enchantress came there, and he heard how she cried, rapunzel, rapunzel, let down your hair. Then rapunzel let down the braids of her hair, and the enchantress climbed up to her. If that is the ladder by which one mounts, I too will try my fortune, said he, and the next day when it began to grow dark, he went to the tower and cried, rapunzel, rapunzel, let down your hair. Immediately the hair fell down and the king's son climbed up. At first rapunzel was terribly frightened when a man, such as her eyes had never yet beheld, came to her. But the king's son began to talk to her quite like a friend, and told her that his heart had been so stirred that it had let him have no rest, and he had been forced to see her. Then rapunzel lost her fear, and when he asked her if she would take him for her husband, and she saw that he was young and handsome, she thought, he will love me more than old dame gothel does. And she said yes, and laid her hand in his. She said, I will willingly go away with you, but I do not know how to get down. Bring with you a skein of silk every time that you come, and I will weave a ladder with it, and when that is ready I will descend, and you will take me on your horse. They agreed that until that time he should come to her every evening, for the old woman came by day. The enchantress remarked nothing of this, until once rapunzel said to her, tell me, dame gothel, how it happens that you are so much heavier for me to draw up than the young king's son - he is with me in a moment. Ah. You wicked child, cried the enchantress. What do I hear you say. I thought I had separated you from all the world, and yet you have deceived me. In her anger she clutched rapunzel's beautiful tresses, wrapped them twice round her left hand, seized a pair of scissors with the right, and snip, snap, they were cut off, and the lovely braids lay on the ground. And she was so pitiless that she took poor rapunzel into a desert where she had to live in great grief and misery. On the same day that she cast out rapunzel, however, the enchantress fastened the braids of hair, which she had cut off, to the hook of the window, and when the king's son came and cried, rapunzel, rapunzel, let down your hair, she let the hair down. The king's son ascended, but instead of finding his dearest rapunzel, he found the enchantress, who gazed at him with wicked and venomous looks. Aha, she cried mockingly, you would fetch your dearest, but the beautiful bird sits no longer singing in the nest. The cat has got it, and will scratch out your eyes as well. Rapunzel is lost to you. You will never see her again. The king's son was beside himself with pain, and in his despair he leapt down from the tower. He escaped with his life, but the thorns into which he fell pierced his eyes. Then he wandered quite blind about the forest, ate nothing but roots and berries, and did naught but lament and weep over the loss of his dearest wife. Thus he roamed about in misery for some years, and at length came to the desert where rapunzel, with the twins to which she had given birth, a boy and a girl, lived in wretchedness. He heard a voice, and it seemed so familiar to him that he went towards it, and when he approached, rapunzel knew him and fell on his neck and wept. Two of her tears wetted his eyes and they grew clear again, and he could see with them as before. He led her to his kingdom where he was joyfully received, and they lived for a long time afterwards, happy and contented."

  "clean_text": "There were once a man and a woman who had long in vain wished for a child. At length the woman hoped that God was about to grant her desire. These people had a little window at the back of their house from which a splendid garden could be seen, which was full of the most beautiful flowers and herbs. It was, however, surrounded by a high wall, and no one dared to go into it because it belonged to an enchantress, who had great power and was dreaded by all the world. One day the woman was standing by this window and looking down into the garden, when she saw a bed which was planted with the most beautiful rampion - rapunzel, and it looked so fresh and green that she longed for it, and had the greatest desire to eat some. This desire increased every day, and as she knew that she could not get any of it, she quite pined away, and began to look pale and miserable. Then her husband was alarmed, and asked, what ails you, dear wife. Ah, she replied, if I can't eat some of the rampion, which is in the garden behind our house, I shall die.

At first rapunzel was terribly frightened when a man, such as her eyes had never yet beheld, came to her.\n\nBut the king's son began to talk to her quite like a friend, and told her that his heart had been so stirred that it had let him have no rest, and he had been forced to see her. Then rapunzel lost her fear, and when he asked her if she would take him for her husband, and she saw that he was young and handsome, she thought, he will love me more than old dame gothel does. And she said yes, and laid her hand in his. She said, I will willingly go away with you, but I do not know how to get down. Bring with you a skein of silk every time that you come, and I will weave a ladder with it, and when that is ready I will descend, and you will take me on your horse. They agreed that until that time he should come to her every evening, for the old woman came by day.\n\nThe enchantress remarked nothing of this, until once rapunzel said to her, tell me, dame gothel, how it happens that you are so much heavier for me to draw up than the young king's son - he is with me in a moment. Ah. You wicked child, cried the enchantress. What do I hear you say. I thought I had separated you from all the world, and yet you have deceived me. In her anger she clutched rapunzel's beautiful tresses, wrapped them twice round her left hand, seized a pair of scissors with the right, and snip, snap, they were cut off, and the lovely braids lay on the ground. And she was so pitiless that she took poor rapunzel into a desert where she had to live in great grief and misery.\n\nOn the same day that she cast out rapunzel, however, the enchantress fastened the braids of hair, which she had cut off, to the hook of the window, and when the king's son came and cried, rapunzel, rapunzel, let down your hair, she let the hair down. The king's son ascended, but instead of finding his dearest rapunzel, he found the enchantress, who gazed at him with wicked and venomous looks. Aha, she cried mockingly, you would fetch your dearest, but the beautiful bird sits no longer singing in the nest. The cat has got it, and will scratch out your eyes as well. Rapunzel is lost to you. You will never see her again. The king's son was beside himself with pain, and in his despair he leapt down from the tower. He escaped with his life, but the thorns into which he fell pierced his eyes.\n\nThen he wandered quite blind about the forest, ate nothing but roots and berries, and did naught but lament and weep over the loss of his dearest wife. Thus he roamed about in misery for some years, and at length came to the desert where rapunzel, with the twins to which she had given birth, a boy and a girl, lived in wretchedness. He heard a voice, and it seemed so familiar to him that he went towards it, and when he approached, rapunzel knew him and fell on his neck and wept. Two of her tears wetted his eyes and they grew clear again, and he could see with them as before. He led her to his kingdom where he was joyfully received, and they lived for a long time afterwards, happy and contented.",

    "There were once a man and a woman who had long in vain wished for a child. At length the woman hoped that God was about to grant her desire. These people had a little window at the back of their house from which a splendid garden could be seen, which was full of the most beautiful flowers and herbs. It was, however, surrounded by a high wall, and no one dared to go into it because it belonged to an enchantress, who had great power and was dreaded by all the world. One day the woman was standing by this window and looking down into the garden, when she saw a bed which was planted with the most beautiful rampion - rapunzel, and it looked so fresh and green that she longed for it, and had the greatest desire to eat some.",
    "This desire increased every day, and as she knew that she could not get any of it, she quite pined away, and began to look pale and miserable. Then her husband was alarmed, and asked, what ails you, dear wife. Ah, she replied, if I cannot eat some of the rampion, which is in the garden behind our house, I shall die. The man, who loved her, thought, sooner than let your wife die, bring her some of the rampion yourself, let it cost what it will. At twilight, he clambered down over the wall into the garden of the enchantress, hastily clutched a handful of rampion, and took it to his wife. She at once made herself a salad of it, and ate it greedily. It tasted so good to her - so very good, that the next day she longed for it three times as much as before.",
    "If he was to have any rest, her husband must once more descend into the garden. In the gloom of evening, therefore, he let himself down again. But when he had clambered down the wall he was terribly afraid, for he saw the enchantress standing before him. How can you dare, said she with angry look, descend into my garden and steal my rampion like a thief. You shall suffer for it. Ah, answered he, let mercy take the place of justice, I only made up my mind to do it out of necessity. My wife saw your rampion from the window, and felt such a longing for it that she would have died if she had not got some to eat.",
    "Then the enchantress allowed her anger to be softened, and said to him, if the case be as you say, I will allow you to take away with you as much rampion as you will, only I make one condition, you must give me the child which your wife will bring into the world. It shall be well treated, and I will care for it like a mother. The man in his terror consented to everything, and when the woman was brought to bed, the enchantress appeared at once, gave the child the name of rapunzel, and took it away with her. Rapunzel grew into the most beautiful child under the sun. When she was twelve years old, the enchantress shut her into a tower, which lay in a forest, and had neither stairs nor door, but quite at the top was a little window.",
    "When the enchantress wanted to go in, she placed herself beneath it and cried, rapunzel, rapunzel, let down your hair to me. Rapunzel had magnificent long hair, fine as spun gold, and when she heard the voice of the enchantress she unfastened her braided tresses, wound them round one of the hooks of the window above, and then the hair fell twenty ells down, and the enchantress climbed up by it. After a year or two, it came to pass that the king's son rode through the forest and passed by the tower. Then he heard a song, which was so charming that he stood still and listened. This was rapunzel, who in her solitude passed her time in letting her sweet voice resound. The king's son wanted to climb up to her, and looked for the door of the tower, but none was to be found.",
    "He rode home, but the singing had so deeply touched his heart, that every day he went out into the forest and listened to it. Once when he was thus standing behind a tree, he saw that an enchantress came there, and he heard how she cried, rapunzel, rapunzel, let down your hair. Then rapunzel let down the braids of her hair, and the enchantress climbed up to her. If that is the ladder by which one mounts, I too will try my fortune, said he, and the next day when it began to grow dark, he went to the tower and cried, rapunzel, rapunzel, let down your hair.

    "Once there was a man and a woman who really wanted a child. They prayed for a long time, and finally, the woman felt hopeful that God would grant her wish. Their house had a little window at the back. From there, they could see a beautiful garden full of lovely flowers and green herbs. But there was a high wall around it, and no one dared to go inside because it belonged to a kind of witch. The witch was very powerful, and everyone was a little bit afraid of her. One day, the woman was standing by the window looking down. She saw a bed filled with the most beautiful rampion, and it looked so fresh and green that she longed for it. She wanted to eat some very much.",
    "Her wish grew bigger every day. She knew she could not have any, so she felt very sad. Her skin became pale, and she looked miserable. Her husband was worried and asked, \"What is wrong, my dear wife?\" She answered, \"If I cannot eat some of the green rampion from the garden behind our house, I will die.\" The man loved her very much. He thought, \"I would rather bring you the rampion myself than let you die.\" So, at twilight, he climbed over the wall into the enchantress's garden. He quickly grabbed a bunch of rampion and ran home to his wife. She made a salad with it and ate it quickly. It tasted so good to her—so very good—that the next day she wanted it three times as much as before.",
    "If he wanted any rest, he had to go back down to the garden. In the soft evening light, he climbed down the wall again. But when he got to the bottom, he felt very scared. He saw the witch standing right there.\n\n\"How dare you come down here?\" she asked with a mean look. \"You are stealing my rampion like a thief. You will be sorry for this.\"\n\n\"Oh, please,\" he answered. \"Let kindness be more important than being angry. I only did it because I had to. My wife saw your pretty rampion from the window. She loved it so much that she would have been very sad if she couldn't have some to eat.",
    "Then the enchantress felt her anger soften. She said to the man, \"If you tell the truth, I will let you take as much rampion as you want. But I have one condition. You must give me the baby your wife will have. I will treat the child like my own daughter and care for her.\" The man was very scared, so he agreed to everything. When the woman had her baby, the enchantress came right away. She named the baby Rapunzel and took her away. Rapunzel grew up to be the most beautiful girl in the world. When she was twelve years old, the enchantress locked her in a tall tower in the middle of the forest. The tower had no stairs and no door, but there was a small window at the very top.",
    "When the enchantress wanted to go in, she stood under the window and called out, \"Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair for me.\" Rapunzel had beautiful, long hair that was as fine as spun gold. When she heard the enchantress’s voice, she took down her braids, wrapped them around a hook in the window, and let them fall all the way down. The enchantress climbed up them easily. After a year or two, the prince rode through the forest and passed by the tower. He heard a lovely song and stopped to listen. It was Rapunzel singing to pass the time. The prince wanted to see her and looked for a door, but he could not find one.",
    "He rode home, but the song had touched his heart so much that he went into the forest every day to listen. One day, he hid behind a tree and saw a kind lady. She called out, \"Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair.\" Rapunzel let her long hair fall, and the lady climbed up. \"That looks like a nice ladder,\" he thought. \"I will try it, too.\" The next day, when it was dark, he went to the tower and called, \"Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair.\" Her hair fell down, and he climbed up. At first, Rapunzel was very scared because she had never seen a handsome prince before.",
    "But the prince began to talk to her like a good friend. He told her that his heart felt so full of love that he could not sleep. He had to come and see her. Rapunzel was no longer afraid. When he asked if she would be his wife, she looked at him. He was young and handsome. She thought, \"He will love me more than the old witch does.\" She said yes and held his hand. She said, \"I will go with you, but I do not know how to get down. Bring me a long string of silk every time you visit. I will weave a ladder. When it is ready, I will climb down, and you will take me on your horse.\" They agreed that he would come to her every evening, because the witch came during the day.",
    "The enchantress said nothing at first. Then Rapunzel spoke up. \"Dame Gothel, why is it so hard for you to pull me up? The young prince is here in a moment. He is with me so fast.\" \"Ah, you naughty child!\" cried the enchantress. \"What are you saying? I thought I had kept you away from the whole world, but you tricked me.\" In her anger, she grabbed Rapunzel's long, golden hair. She wrapped it twice around her left hand. With her right hand, she took a pair of scissors. *Snip, snap!* The hair fell to the ground. The enchantress was so unkind that she took poor Rapunzel away to a lonely desert. There, Rapunzel had to live in great sadness and misery.",
    "On the same day that she sent Rapunzel away, the witch tied the long hair she had cut to the window hook. When the prince came and called, \"Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair,\" she lowered it for him. The prince climbed up, but instead of finding his sweet Rapunzel, he saw the witch. She looked at him with a mean and angry face. \"Aha!\" she laughed. \"You wanted your sweet girl, but the beautiful bird is gone. The cat has her, and will hurt you. You will never see Rapunzel again.\" The prince was very sad and jumped down from the tower. He was hurt, but he was alive. The sharp thorns scratched his eyes, and he could not see anymore.",
    "Then he walked through the dark forest, feeling very lost. He ate only roots and berries, and he cried all day because he missed his wife so much. He wandered in sadness for many years until he reached the desert. There, he heard a sweet voice. It sounded just like hers! He walked toward the sound. When he got close, Rapunzel saw him. She ran to him and hugged him tight. She cried happy tears, and they washed away his sadness. His eyes felt light again, and he could see clearly. He took her to his kingdom. Everyone was so happy to see them. They lived there together for a long time, feeling warm and safe."

The tower had no stairs and no door, but there was a small window at the very top.\n\nWhen the enchantress wanted to go in, she stood under the window and called out, \"Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair for me.\" Rapunzel had beautiful, long hair that was as fine as spun gold. When she heard the enchantress’s voice, she took down her braids, wrapped them around a hook in the window, and let them fall all the way down. The enchantress climbed up them easily. After a year or two, the prince rode through the forest and passed by the tower. He heard a lovely song and stopped to listen. It was Rapunzel singing to pass the time. The prince wanted to see her and looked for a door, but he could not find one.\n\nHe rode home, but the song had touched his heart so much that he went into the forest every day to listen. One day, he hid behind a tree and saw a kind lady. She called out, \"Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair.\" Rapunzel let her long hair fall, and the lady climbed up. \"That looks like a nice ladder,\" he thought. \"I will try it, too.\" The next day, when it was dark, he went to the tower and called, \"Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair.\" Her hair fell down, and he climbed up. At first, Rapunzel was very scared because she had never seen a handsome prince before.\n\nBut the prince began to talk to her like a good friend. He told her that his heart felt so full of love that he could not sleep. He had to come and see her. Rapunzel was no longer afraid. When he asked if she would be his wife, she looked at him. He was young and handsome. She thought, \"He will love me more than the old witch does.\" She said yes and held his hand. She said, \"I will go with you, but I do not know how to get down. Bring me a long string of silk every time you visit. I will weave a ladder. When it is ready, I will climb down, and you will take me on your horse.\" They agreed that he would come to her every evening, because the witch came during the day.\n\nThe enchantress said nothing at first. Then Rapunzel spoke up. \"Dame Gothel, why is it so hard for you to pull me up? The young prince is here in a moment. He is with me so fast.\" \"Ah, you naughty child!\" cried the enchantress. \"What are you saying? I thought I had kept you away from the whole world, but you tricked me.\" In her anger, she grabbed Rapunzel's long, golden hair. She wrapped it twice around her left hand. With her right hand, she took a pair of scissors. *Snip, snap!* The hair fell to the ground. The enchantress was so unkind that she took poor Rapunzel away to a lonely desert. There, Rapunzel had to live in great sadness and misery.\n\nOn the same day that she sent Rapunzel away, the witch tied the long hair she had cut to the window hook. When the prince came and called, \"Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair,\" she lowered it for him. The prince climbed up, but instead of finding his sweet Rapunzel, he saw the witch. She looked at him with a mean and angry face. \"Aha!\" she laughed. \"You wanted your sweet girl, but the beautiful bird is gone. The cat has her, and will hurt you. You will never see Rapunzel again.\" The prince was very sad and jumped down from the tower. He was hurt, but he was alive. The sharp thorns scratched his eyes, and he could not see anymore.\n\nThen he walked through the dark forest, feeling very lost. He ate only roots and berries, and he cried all day because he missed his wife so much. He wandered in sadness for many years until he reached the desert. There, he heard a sweet voice. It sounded just like hers! He walked toward the sound. When he got close, Rapunzel saw him. She ran to him and hugged him tight. She cried happy tears, and they washed away his sadness. His eyes felt light again, and he could see clearly. He took her to his kingdom. Everyone was so happy to see them. They lived there together for a long time, feeling warm and safe.",

    "Once there was a man and a woman who really wanted a child. They prayed for a long time, and finally, the woman felt hopeful that God would grant her wish. Their house had a little window at the back. From there, they could see a beautiful garden full of lovely flowers and green herbs. But there was a high wall around it, and no one dared to go inside because it belonged to a kind of witch. The witch was very powerful, and everyone was a little bit afraid of her. One day, the woman was standing by the window looking down. She saw a bed filled with the most beautiful rampion, and it looked so fresh and green that she longed for it. She wanted to eat some very much.",
    "Her wish grew bigger every day. She knew she could not have any, so she felt very sad. Her skin became pale, and she looked miserable. Her husband was worried and asked, \"What is wrong, my dear wife?\" She answered, \"If I cannot eat some of the green rampion from the garden behind our house, I will die.\" The man loved her very much. He thought, \"I would rather bring you the rampion myself than let you die.\" So, at twilight, he climbed over the wall into the enchantress's garden. He quickly grabbed a bunch of rampion and ran home to his wife. She made a salad with it and ate it quickly. It tasted so good to her—so very good—that the next day she wanted it three times as much as before.",
    "If he wanted any rest, he had to go back down to the garden. In the soft evening light, he climbed down the wall again. But when he got to the bottom, he felt very scared. He saw the witch standing right there.\n\n\"How dare you come down here?\" she asked with a mean look. \"You are stealing my rampion like a thief. You will be sorry for this.\"\n\n\"Oh, please,\" he answered. \"Let kindness be more important than being angry. I only did it because I had to. My wife saw your pretty rampion from the window. She loved it so much that she would have been very sad if she couldn't have some to eat.",
    "Then the enchantress felt her anger soften. She said to the man, \"If you tell the truth, I will let you take as much rampion as you want. But I have one condition. You must give me the baby your wife will have. I will treat the child like my own daughter and care for her.\" The man was very scared, so he agreed to everything. When the woman had her baby, the enchantress came right away. She named the baby Rapunzel and took her away. Rapunzel grew up to be the most beautiful girl in the world. When she was twelve years old, the enchantress locked her in a tall tower in the middle of the forest. The tower had no stairs and no door, but there was a small window at the very top.",
