This character insists that a cook purchase and prepare a capon that "would only feed to music—one march in particular was its favorite." Earlier, this character sells a silver-chased belt for half a guilder while claiming it is worth two and sings "what fires that blood is my red meat" in a song used to peddle boots and food. This character's nickname recalls an incident in which she drove through gunfire in Riga to sell loaves of bread to soldiers, and in an attempt to warn her, her child dies while beating a drum. That girl, Kattrin, was this woman's last surviving child after the deaths of Eilif and Swiss Cheese. For 10 points, name this title character of a Bertolt Brecht play.
