Kozyol
Language: Russian (Русский)
Shla devicza progulyat`sya, na luzhyok pokrasovat`sya, Vdrug navstrechu ej kozyol! Stary'j, gryazny'j, borodaty'j, Strashny'j, zloj i ves` moxnaty'j, sushhij chort! I devicza ispugalas`, Ot kozla begom pomchalas` pryamo v kust, I pritailas`, Ele dy'shet, chut` zhiva. Shla devicza pod venecz, Znat` prishla pora ej zamuzh, nu i vy'shla! Muzh i stary'j i gorbaty'j, Ly'sy'j, zloj i borodaty'j, sushhij chort. Chto-zh, devicza ispugalas`? Gm! Kak zhe! Ona k muzhu prilaskalas`, Uveryala, chto verna, gm! chto v muzha vlyublena, Chto primernaya zhena.
