“A bijahu oboje pravedni i pred Bogom, i življahu u svemu po zapovijestima i uredbama Gospodnjijem bez mane.”

“Moja mati klonu kraj kovčega i onesvesti se. Sestra vrisnu. Ja skoičih iz postelje. I Đokica skoči. Sedosmo dole na patos kraj nje, ljubismo joj ruku. Ona metnu ruku na moju glavu i šaputaše nešto. Onda skoči, upali svitac, pa prižeže kandilo pred svetim Đorđem. – Odite, deco, molite se Bogu da nas izbavi od napasti – reče ona. Glas joj zvoni kao zvono, a oči svetle kao večernjača na nebu.”
Mother collapsed by the chest and fell into a swoon. Sister screamed. I jumped out of bed, and Đokica did too. We sat down on the floor by her, and kissed her hand. She put her hand on my head and whispered something. Then she leapt up, kindled a brand and lit the lamp before the icon of St. George. “Come, children, and pray to God to deliver us from temptation,” she said. Her voice rang out like a bell, and her eyes shone like the evening star in the heavens.
