Wafri bak kairs A choro mush ta jal alay, But it mukks a boro mush To chiv his kokero apre.

{213} TRANSLATION.
Once the cat went to see her cousin the hare.

And there came a hunter, and the cat scrambled up the hill, further up, up a tree, and there she found a bird's nest.

But the hare ran down the hill, far down into the country.
Bad luck sends a poor man further down, but it causes a great man to rise still more.
GUDLO XII.

OF THE GIPSY WOMAN AND THE CHILD.
Pre yeck chairus a chi jalled adree a waver tem, an' she rikkered a gunno pre laki dumo with a baulo adree.
