-
In the woods?
-
Yes.
-
In the top of a tall tower that has no door or stairs.
-
Where?
-
Two leagues from here, due east,
-
just beyond the mossy knoll near the rose thickets.
-
And how do you manage a visit?
-
I stand beneath her tower
-
and I say, "Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair to me."
-
And then she lowers the longest,
-
most beautiful head of hair - yellow as corn
-
which I climb.
