The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Grimm's Fairy Tales by Brothers Grimm: and her cap fell from her head.
Then the bird began again:
'My mother killed her little son;
'Ah me!' cried the wife, 'if I were but a thousand feet beneath the
earth, that I might not hear that song.'
My father grieved when I was gone;
then the woman fell down again as if dead.
My sister loved me best of all;
'Well,' said little Marleen, 'I will go out too and see if the bird
will give me anything.'
So she went out.
