Notes for M. (Little Hunchback) Digital Drawings. 2009
When I go down to my cellar stores / To draw a little wine,
/ I find a little hunchback there / Has snatched away my stein.
When I go up to my kitchen stove / To make a little soup, / I find a little
hunchback there / Has cracked my lttle stoup.
When I go into my little room /
To have my little sweet, / I find a hunchback there / Has eaten half the treat.
Whe I come into my room, My little bed to make, / A little hunchback is in
there, / With laughter does he shake.
When I kneel upon my stool / And want to pray, / A hunchbacked man is in the
room / And he starts to say:
Dear little child, I beg of you, / Pray for the little hunchback too.
(German folksong from 'Des Knaben Wunderhorn')
