“Oh kuidas neid igatsusega oodati, himuga osteti, mitte ainult, et näha millal vihma ehk lund tuleb, vaid pääasjalikult nende sabade pärast, oli uudist saada.”
“Mõlemal oli nõnda nii imeliselt hea, sest mehe pilgus virvendas alles himu. Kuna naise palgeile tõusis häbipuna, tõusis juba täie teadmise taibuga, kui ütlemata hea on nõnda mehe pilgu ees punastada.”
It was so wonderfully good for both of them, because the man's gaze was full of lust. As a blush of shame rose on her cheeks, it rose with full knowledge of how unutterably good it was to blush thus before his gaze.
