Uncle, do not question me further; I must depart from Soplicowo as quickly as may be.” “Oho!” said his uncle, “this is certainly some love tiff.

I know all that nonsense; when a pair of children fall in love, then they have no end of misfortunes.
She wonders that he makes so much of the little tiff. He talks of his unworthiness, and makes her promise to cleave to him through good and evil report.
