CLEVER GRETHEL

THERE was once a cook called Grethel, who wore shoes with red heels, and

when she went out in them she gave herself great airs, and thought

herself very fine indeed. When she came home again, she would take a

drink of wine to refresh herself, and as that gave her an appetite, she

would take some of the best of whatever she was cooking, until she had

had enough;--"for," said she, "a cook must know how things taste."
