      Пала је прва јесенска киша. Стари је Јанко, лугар брезовачки, јавио да су шљуке дошле. Од тога часа старац Баторић не имађаше више мира код куће, и тек што се сунце опет показало па настали они њежно свијетли дани прве јесени, пођосмо у лов.

      The first autumn rains had fallen. Old Janko, the Brezovica forester, announced that thewoodcocks had come. From that time on, the elder Batorić did not have any more peace in the house, and as soon as the sun came out again and those sweet light days of early autumn started up, we set out for the hunt.
