G("Second") = up(G("First"));
"output.txt" << conceptname(G("Second")) << "\n";
# go back down to 'mother'
G("First") = down(G("Second"));
"output.txt" << conceptname(G("First")) << "\n";
# find mother's first sibling, which should be 'daughter'
G("Second") = next(G("First"));
"output.txt" << conceptname(G("Second")) << "\n";
# find daughter's previous sibling, which should be mother
G("First") = prev(G("Second"));
"output.txt" << conceptname(G("First")) << "\n";
