  But she locked up Hansel in a prison and had Gretel work hard. She gave a large amount of cookies and candies to Hansel every day in order to eat him after he became fat. However, the hag had weak eyesight and was unable to see well.

  “Dear Hansel, please stick out your finger.” Every time Hansel would stick out chicken bone through the bars of his cage. The hag was very angry and shouted, “Why you don’t get fat soon? You must eat a lot in order to be fat.”

  Gretel knew that the like of her brother was in danger. Gretel said to the hag, “Please see if the fire in the stove is burning well. My eyesight is weak, and I am unable to see well.”

  The hag said, “You foolish girl! Can‘t you even do that? You shall not eat anything today, either!” The hag looked in the stove. At that moment, Gretel forcefully pushed the hag into the stove and closed the door.

  When the hag was burnt and dead, Gretel saved Hansel and they escaped from the witch’s cottage. The children wandered around for several days to find their house, eating the cookies they brought from the gingerbread house. When they returned home they found that their stepmother had run away, but their father greeted them with delight. Thereafter, Hansel and Gretel lived happily with their father.
