It makes me think that the "perfect and model" women teachers are attempting to brainwash the little girls in a cheery way to distract people from what they're doing...
"Listen to the pretty song.
Happy as the day is long.
Forget the things you thought you knew.
We'll make a very good girl of you."
the ending spoken part makes me feel so uplifted and confident which is corny, I know, it gives me chills...I imagine the girls, big and small in identical mud-splattered dresses with hair ribbons in rats' nests of once perfect curls, they are tiptoeing and shushing each other through a dark forest, the lantern lights of the angry people searching for them not too far away. A young girl about 5 or 6 looks up into the lead girl's face, the lead girl is the oldest and she has found out the tricks.She smiles down at the little girl's uplifted face, a grin on her lips and says proudly, "Don't worry,they can catch us or they could kill us,
but they can never crush our spirits."
