There was a simple thief and always hazel on foot and in Seryka: he was not gathering income in the city, not in the congress, but on the road on the roadway. Another official was, and he had darkness in the chest of Chervonsev and rubles, which he gathered from an innocent people; The belief of Edako or such a fashion has shameless clerks and judges, but finally both in the order: both are strict decree. Both of the whip threatens the holes of the coffin door. The judges are sinking: "not so much dashing a large" - and settled a thief; The slings say: “Not so much less less” - and settles the thief; Both sides decrees the rightness. Reader!
