Krati nimi oli Peetrus

Enn Vetemaa

Krati nimi oli Peetrus

Ning juba esimesel neljapäeval tulnud kratile hing sisse, muidu kuluvat ikkagi kolm neljapäevaööd ära. Ja verd polnud loomulikult vajagi. Aap pomisenud rehe all tasa-tasa: „Upelsteni nimel, olgu sul hing sees!” Nii et, hea õpetaja, sellele kratile, kes ausa Madli sukapaela peab ära tooma, saame elu sisse küll. Ja veel oma hingeõnnistust ohtu seadmata!”
