Ah, missed that the first time round. I _knew_ this computer was bad for my
eyesight.
But both you and Muke missed the neatest part IMHO: The young lady's name
is Rapunzel, and she has very long hair. The gnome is on the ground; in
order to access her in the tower, he calls out: Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let
down your hair! She does and he climbs up it.
Way back when, Stan Freberg recorded his version of the story, of which I
remember only : Repulsive, Repulsive, let down your hair!
