{'text': '„Mi besmo dobre gazde u selu, otac moj imao je kuću i sesiju zemlje, imali smo četiri vola, lepa četiri krstaša, rogovi u njih behu kao u jelena, ali još više u šire nego u jelena, a vrhovi behu bačeni natrag, dlaku na glavi imaše belu i kovrčavu, koja je skoro do očiju popadala bila na glavi, — pa posle sva ova četiri vola behu tako jednaka i u hodu i u veličini i debljini, da je to divota bilo pogledati — e ta divna ti je to stoka bila.'}
