“That was ill done, Hans, thou shouldst have put a rope round the goat’s neck.”

“Never mind, will do better next time.”

“Whither away, Hans?”

“To Grethel, mother.”

“Behave well, Hans.”

“Oh, I’ll behave well. Goodbye, mother.”

“Goodbye, Hans.” Hans comes to Grethel. “Good day, Grethel.”

“Good day, Hans. What good thing dost thou bring?”

“I bring nothing, I want something given me.” Grethel presents Hans with a piece of bacon. “Goodbye, Grethel.”

“Goodbye, Hans.”
