Time runs, and life too blizenko.
Pop neither eating, nor drinking, night not sleeping:
His forehead crackles advance.
Here he admits priest's wife:

To all sorts of tricks povadliv.
His wife says: "I know means,
How to remove us from such a calamity:

Meanwhile, you and the forehead of the massacre will deliver
And Balda something without reckoning Send ".

With our general verdict -

Meanwhile there cook bag ".
Balda laughed mischievously:
"What are you making this up, right?
Where you compete with me,
With me, with himself Balde?

Caught two Zajkov, and into the bag.
To the sea it comes again,

Old Bes became there to think a thought.
A noise made such kingsquare,

And waves and expenditure.

Frightened imp yes to his grandfather,
Talk about Baldovu victory,
A Balda above sea roars again
To hell with a rope threatens.

He lifted the mare, two-step stepped,
The third fell, legs stretched out.
And he Balda: "You silly demon,

And his hands-he could not carry,
And I, look, I will tear down between the legs ".
Balda mare sat on top,
Yes Versta proskakal, so that the dust column.
Scared little devil and his grandfather
I went to talk about such a victory.
Do nothing - devils collected dues
Yes Balda shouldered bag.

For the priest's wife hides,
With fear koryachitsya.
Balda found it here,
I gave dues, board began to demand.
poor pop
Framed forehead:
Since the first slot
I jumped into the pop-to-ceiling;
The second slot
Lost pop language;
And the third slot
Knocked the mind of the old man.
A Balda muttering reproachfully:
"I would not chase you, priest, by deshevyznoy ".
