oming there. So they went all quick together, and said "Good evening,"
(sarishan means really "How are you?") at the same time. And that youth
did not know which girl liked him best, or whom he loved best; so all the
four sat down together at the table, and he gave them food and beer. One
ate plenty, but the other two would eat nothing; one drank, but the other
two would not drink something, because they were all angry, and grieved,
and worried. So the youth told them he was afraid if he took a wife that
could not eat, she would not live, so he married the girl that ate her
food.

Always eat all the food that people give you (literally share out to
you), and you will go readily (securely) through sorrow and trouble.

TRANSLATION.

Once almost a hundred years now, when my father was a boy, one night many
Gipsies were going together near the sea, when all at once the horses
began whinnying and kicking and neighing, and making a great noise, and
the Gipsies heard a crying out, and saw men running and rushing as if in
alarm, from a great cave. And when they were all gone away together, the
Gipsies went there and found many little barrels of brandy, and
