  • kapanagahas quoted6 years ago
    asked her name, though I knew it quite well, and she replied, "Prote."
    "I am glad to hear it, madam," said I, "for you thereby promise to be mine."
    "How so?" said she, with a charming smile. I explained the pun, and made her laugh.
  • kapanagahas quoted6 years ago
    On the day on which I was present the priest happened to let one of the children slip through his hands.
    "Drugoi!" he cried.
    That is, "Give me another." But my surprise may be imagined when I saw that the father and mother of the child were in an ecstasy of joy; they were certain that the babe had been carried straight to heaven. Happy ignorance!
