[TYPO3] Retrieving RECORD bodycontent via TS?

I'm trying to retrieve a specific record from tt_content, and echo one 
part of it -- the bodytext -- on another page via TypoScript.

Can someone explain to me why this doesn't do that?  (Assume that the 
uid of the content-item I'm trying to retrieve is 1.)

lib.contentGoesHere = RECORDS
lib.contentGoesHere.tables = tt_content
lib.contentGoesHere.source = 1
lib.contentGoesHere.source.field = bodytext

If I leave off the last line, I can retrieve the entire content item; 
but I don't want the header, just the body text.  I can't find a way to 
get at just that part of the record, though.

I tried this alternative approach:

lib.contentGoesHere = HTML
lib.contentGoesHere.value.data = DB : tt_content:1:bodytext

... and that brings back the bodytext content -- but without its 
embedded HTML markup, just the plain text.  And I need the markup.

What am I missing?
