Drawn by Gertrude Wurinb. Half-tone plate engraved by W. G. Watt AN OLD COURTYARD IN BRUNSWICK Walpurgfs Night. Just before her headwas cut off a local witch once confessedthat she had shut up a thief in a gimlet-hole in the foul fiends name, so that thefellow peeped like a swarm of mice ; andto this day the witches of Brunswick arekeeping up their grand old traditions. The devil is a familiar character, andone often hears: Wennt rant und de sunne schint, dannhat de duwel hochtit. (When it rains and the sun shines, thedevil is getting married.) And there is a charmingly circumstantiallegend how the devil married his grand-mother at midnight in a hall in Bruns-wick, leaving behind him a costly carpetand a ring worth two thousand ducats.People believe that he flies away withatheists, and that on February 15, 1781,his victim was no less a person thanthe great Lessing. For they alwaysthought of their local poet and philoso-pher as an atheist, harder than steel, whowas condemned to glow in
