Once upon a time Christ Himself, Our Little Father, died." "And rose again," muttered the Morduine with a tinge of resentment. Which led Boev to exclaim: "Puppy, hold your tongue! What right have you to air your opinions?" "Besides, this is Good Friday, not Easter Day," the old soldier concluded with severe, didactical mien.

Here a tall, lanky Morduine named Leuka, with, as surname, Narodetz, a young fellow whose small eyes wore always an expression of astonishment, laid aside his axe, and stood gaping. "And from the cave a deep bass voice replied: 'Elesi-a-ah! while at the same moment the tench sprang from the cave, and, champing its jaws, wriggled and wriggled back to the slough."

Upon this the smooth, beardless face of the youthful Morduine, a face dark and angular like the skin of an unpeeled potato, assumed a resentful frown, and, blinking his eyes, he muttered: "Yes, here we may have to sit here where there's neither food nor money! Other folk will be enjoying themselves, but we shall have to remain hugging our hungry stomachs like a pack of dogs!"

I am dead already! Help me, help me!" and became so cramped with terror as to be extricated only with great difficulty, while amid the general confusion the Morduine too nearly slipped into the water.

"Ah, that brave Ossip!" the Morduine once ejaculated. "In very truth is he a man, and no mistake! Just look at him!" The closer we approached the further shore, the thinner and the more brittle did the ice become, and the more liable we to break through it.

He had been walking next ahead of the Morduine, and, as a man habitually silent and absorbed, proceeding on his way more quietly than the rest. Suddenly something had seemed to catch at his legs, and he had disappeared until only his head and his hands, as the latter clutched at his plank, had been left above-level. "Run and help him, somebody!" was Ossip's instant cry.
