Poem
(i) introduction his home in ruins his parents gone frederick seeks to reclaim his throne to the golden mountain he sets his path the enchantress listening schemes with wrath four desperate trials which she takes from store to silence frederick for ever more (ii) the mist softly mist suppress all sight swirling stealthily as night slur the sureness of his steps suffocate his sweetest hopes swirling curling slip and slide persuasively seduce his stride from following its essential course seal his senses at its source bemuse the soil he stands upon till power of choice has wholly gone seething surreptitious veil across the face of light prevail against this taciturn and proud insurgent - o smother him swift cloud yet if you cannot steal his breath thus snuffing him to hasty death at least in your umbrageous mask stifle his ambitious task mystify his restless brain sweep him swirl him home again (iii) the bog once more the muffling mists enclose frederick in their vaporous throes forcing him with unseeing sway to veer from his intended way back they push and back make him fall stumble catch his foot become emmired snatch hopelessly at fog no grip slip further back into the sucking fingers of the bog into the slush squelching and splotch- ing the marsh gushes and gurgles engulfing foot leg chuckling suckles the heaving thigh the plush slugged waist sucking still and still flushing with suggestive slurp plop slap sluggishly upwards unctuous lugubrious soaking and enjoying with spongy gestures the swallowed wallowing body - the succulence of soft shoulder squirming elbow wrist then all....... but no his desperate palm struggling to forsake the clutches of the swamp finds one stark branch overhanging to fix glad fingers to and out of the maw of the murderous mud safely delivers him (iv) the magic forest safely - distorted joke from bog to twisted forest gnarled trees writhe and fork asphixiated trunks - angular branches hook claw throttle frederick in their creaking joints jagged weird knotted and misshapen petrified maniacal figures frantically contorted grotesque eccentric in the moon-toothed half-light tug clutch struggle with the haggard form zigzag he staggers awe-plagued giddy near-garrotted mind-deranged forcing his sagging limbs through the mangled danger till almost beyond redemption beyond self-care he once again survives to breathe free air (v) the barrier of thorns immediately a barrier of thorns springs up to choke his track thick brier evil bramble twitch stick sharp needles in his skin hag's spite inflicts its bitter sting frederick (provoked to attack stung stabbed by jabbing spines wincing with agony and grief) seeks to hack a clear way through picking swinging at the spiky barricade inch by prickly inch smarting with anger bristling with a thin itch and tingling of success - acute with aching glory the afflicted victim of a witch's pique frederick frederick the king snips hews chops rips slashes cracks cleaves rends pierces pierces and shatters into pointless pieces this mighty barrier of barbs - comes through at last (belzivetta's malignant magic smashed) to freedom peace of mind and dreamless sleep
