When nearly all the food supplies had been consumed and the inhabitants of the castle town came near suffering death by starvation, she ordered the last pig to be fattened and to be thrown across the castle walls.

The enemies fell for this trick and thought that the castle still was far from being conquered, since the inhabitants obviously still had enough to eat and were not starving.

Als beinahe alle Essensvorräte aufgebraucht waren und die Bewohner der Burgstadt dem Hungertod ausgeliefert zu sein glaubten, ließ sie das letzte verbliebene Schwein mästen und über die Burgmauer warfen.

Die Feinde fielen auf die List herein und dachten, dass die Burg noch lange nicht einzunehmen sei, da die Bewohner noch lange nicht ausgehungert sein würden, da sie offensichtlich noch ausreichend zu essen hätten.

Resigniert zogen sie ab.
