    Hush now, baby, don't you cry.Your little tears I'll always dry.A branch of myrrh and Bolla rootTo strengthen you in all you doWith silver and gold, and a strand of roseAnd plenty of magic to keep them close. Hush now, baby, I'm right here To chase away your every fear With a drop of mint and a sprig of yew And three little precious drops of blue. You'll grow straight and swift and true And I will always be with you.

Thus, even today, she hesitates superstitiously before crossing the road, and is painfully shy of walking distances. Her fears make her laughable. The scar is printed on her skin like a radiant star.
