Question
It was a summer evening,
Old Kaspar's work was done,
And he before his cottage door
Was sitting in the sun,
And by him sported on the green
His little grandchild Wilhelmine.

Which he beside the rivulet
In playing there had found;
He came to ask what he had found,
That was so large, and smooth, and round.
