` For now , ' she thought , ` the shower of golden rain will come . ' Mother Holle led her to the same door as she had done her sister , but when she passed through it , instead of the gold rain a kettle full of pitch came showering over her . ` That 's a reward for your service , ' said Mother Holle , and she closed the door behind her . So the lazy girl came home all covered with pitch , and when the old hen on the top of the wall saw her , it called out : ` Click , clock , clack , Our dirty slut 's come back . ' But the pitch remained sticking to her , and never as long as she lived could it be got off . -LRB- 26 -RRB- -LRB- 26 -RRB- Grimm . MINNIKIN THERE was once upon a time a couple of needy folk who lived in a wretched hut , in which there was nothing but black want ; so they had neither food to eat nor wood to burn . But if they had next to nothing of all else they had the blessing of God so far as children were concerned , and every year brought them one more . The man was not overpleased at this . He was always going about grumbling and growling , and saying that it seemed to him that there might be such a thing as having too many of these good gifts ; so shortly before another baby was born he went away into the wood for some firewood , saying that he did not want to see the new child ; he would hear him quite soon enough when he began to squall for some food . As soon as this baby was born it began to look about the room . ` Ah , my dear mother ! ' said he , ` give me some of my brothers ' old clothes , and food enough for a few days , and I will go out into the world and seek my fortune , for , so far as I can see , you have children enough . ' ` Heaven help thee , my son ! ' said the mother , ` that will never do ; thou art still far too little . ' But the little creature was determined to do it , and begged and prayed so long that the mother was forced to let him have some old rags , and tie up a little food for him , and then gaily and happily he went out into the world . But almost before he was out of the house another boy was born , and he too looked about him , and said , ` Ah , my dear mother ! give me some of my brothers ' old clothes , and food for some days , and then I will go out into the world and find my twin brother , for you have children enough . ' ` Heaven help thee , little creature ! thou art far too little for that , ' said the woman ; ` it would never do . '
But she spoke to no purpose , for the boy begged and prayed until he had got some old rags and a bundle of provisions , and then he set out manfully XXXXX the world to find his twin brother .
