I first read it when I was a kid. The puppet had to eat something called "vetch." I looked it up--some kind of plant. I'd never seen the word used before, and I don't think I've ever seen it used since. (I remember wondering why a puppet had to eat. The Scarecrow and Tin Woodman never did.) Same for "rampion" in the Rapunzel story. The word to me brings back one memory: the fairy tale “Pinocchio.” I first read it when I was a kid.
