Now then! Ha. now tliou hast ooino to listen, thou Little Flint! 

 where the little mountains are tluni art staying. Thou wizard; 

 what dost thou ever fail in? Quickly thou hast come down. At 

 the edge of the ever-swainpy maa'sh thou hast ooiue to lialt. It 

 eaiue out (.as a") t^M-rihle insect (but) it was a mere wonu. But 

 that is the very thing thou eatest. A mere likeness of it ^\■ill be 

 left when thou wilt have passed. They are merely what have 

 become animal ghosts. They are mere worms. (And^i a second 

 time tliou hast again come and eaten them as thou goest by: a mere 

 likeness of it will be left wIumi thou Nvilt have passed. Relief will 

 be caused constantlv. Relief has been caused.
