\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 E bunic\u0103-mea! a spus Klaus cel mare. Am omor\u00e2t-o ca s-o v\u00e2nd \u015fi s\u0103 iau pe ea o bani\u0163\u0103 de bani.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 Pesemne c\u0103 nu e\u015fti \u00een toate min\u0163ile, a spus spi\u0163erul. S\u0103 nu mai spui una ca asta, c\u0103 po\u0163i s-o p\u0103\u0163e\u015fti r\u0103u de tot.<\/p>\n

\u015ei spi\u0163erul i-a mai spus lui Klaus cel mare c\u0103 e o nelegiuire ce-a f\u0103cut, c\u0103-i un tic\u0103los \u015fi c\u0103 are s\u0103 fie pedepsit. Klaus cel mare s-a speriat \u015fi a s\u0103rit drept \u00een c\u0103ru\u0163\u0103, a dat bici cailor \u015fi a plecat acas\u0103. Spi\u0163erul \u015fi to\u0163i care erau pe-acolo au crezut c\u0103 e nebun \u015fi de aceea l-au l\u0103sat \u00een pace.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0“Ai s\u0103-mi pl\u0103te\u015fti tu asta cu v\u00e2rf \u015fi \u00eendesat, a spus Klaus cel mare \u00een g\u00e2nd lui Klaus cel mic; ai s\u0103 vezi tu ce p\u0103\u0163e\u015fti!” Cum a ajuns acas\u0103, a luat un sac, cel mai mare pe care-l avea, s-a dus la Klaus cel mic \u015fi i-a spus:<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 Iar \u0163i-ai b\u0103tut joc de mine \u015fi m-ai p\u0103c\u0103lit; \u00eent\u00e2i mi-am omor\u00e2t caii, pe urm\u0103 am omor\u00e2t-o pe bunic\u0103-mea; asta numai din vina ta; da\u2019 de acuma s-a ispr\u0103vit, n-ai s\u0103 m\u0103 mai p\u0103c\u0103le\u015fti.<\/p>\n

\u015ei l-a luat pe Klaus cel mic de chic\u0103 \u015fi l-a b\u0103gat \u00een sac, l-a pus \u00een spate \u015fi i-a spus:<\/p>\n

P\u00e2n\u0103 la r\u00e2u era departe \u015fi Klaus cel mic nu era chiar a\u015fa de u\u015for. Drumul trecea pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 biseric\u0103. S-auzea orga \u015fi oamenii care c\u00e2ntau \u00een cor. Klaus cel mare s-a oprit \u015fi a pus jos, l\u00e2ng\u0103 u\u015fa bisericii, sacul cu Klaus cel mic, g\u00e2ndindu-se c\u0103 ar fi bine s\u0103 intre \u00een biseric\u0103, s-asculte pu\u0163in slujba \u015fi dup\u0103 aceea s\u0103 plece mai departe; Klaus cel mic nu putea s\u0103 ias\u0103 din sac \u015fi toat\u0103 lumea era la biseric\u0103. Klaus cel mare a l\u0103sat sacul la u\u015f\u0103 \u015fi a intrat.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 Ah! Doamne, doamne! ofta \u00een sac Klaus cel mic \u015fi se tot sucea \u015fi \u00eenv\u00e2rtea, dar nu putea s\u0103 dezlege sacul. \u00cen vremea asta iat\u0103 c\u0103 trece pe acolo un v\u0103car b\u0103tr\u00e2n cu p\u0103rul alb \u015fi cu un toiag \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103, \u015fi care m\u00e2na din urm\u0103 o ciread\u0103 de vite; vitele d\u0103dur\u0103 peste sacul \u00een care era Klaus cel mic \u015fi \u00eel \u00eempinser\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 Vai! Doamne, a oftat Klaus cel mic; a\u015fa de t\u00e2n\u0103r \u015fi trebuie s\u0103 m\u0103 duc pe lumea cealalt\u0103!<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 \u015ei eu a\u015fa de b\u0103tr\u00e2n! a spus v\u0103carul, \u015fi tot nu mai ajung s\u0103 m\u0103 duc!<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 Dezleag\u0103 sacul, a strigat Klaus cel mic. Bag\u0103-te \u00een locul meu \u015fi ajungi repede pe lumea cealalt\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 Cum s\u0103 nu, bucuros, a spus v\u0103carul. A dezlegat sacul \u015fi Klaus cel mic a ie\u015fit repede din sac.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 Vezi de ciread\u0103! a spus mo\u015fneagul, apoi s-a b\u0103gat \u00een sac, iar Klaus cel mic a legat sacul \u015fi a plecat cu cireada.<\/p>\n

Nu mult dup\u0103 aceea a ie\u015fit \u015fi Klaus cel mare din biseric\u0103. A luat sacul iar \u00een spate, dar acum i se p\u0103rea c\u0103 nu mai era a\u015fa de greu \u015fi chiar a\u015fa \u015fi era, fiindc\u0103 mo\u015fneagul era pe jum\u0103tate mai u\u015for dec\u00e2t Klaus cel mic.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 Ia uite ce u\u015for s-a f\u0103cut! S\u0103 \u015ftii c\u0103-i a\u015fa, pentru c\u0103 m-am dus la biseric\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u015ei Klaus cel mare s-a dus la r\u00e2u, a aruncat \u00een ap\u0103 sacul cu v\u0103carul cel b\u0103tr\u00e2n \u015fi a strigat \u00een urma lui, crez\u00e2nd c\u0103 e Klaus cel mic:<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 Ei, de-acuma n-ai s\u0103-\u0163i mai ba\u0163i joc de mine! \u015ei a luat o \u00eenapoi spre cas\u0103. Dar c\u00e2nd a ajuns la o r\u0103scruce, iat\u0103 c\u0103 se \u00eent\u00e2lne\u015fte cu Klaus cel mic, care \u00ee\u015fi m\u00e2na din urma cireada.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 Ce-i asta? a \u00eentrebat Klaus cel mare. Cum? Nu te-am \u00eenecat?<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 Ba da, a spus Klaus cel mic; m-ai aruncat adineauri \u00een ap\u0103.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 Da\u2019 atunci de unde ai c\u0103p\u0103tat vitele astea a\u015fa de frumoase?<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 Sunt vite de ap\u0103, a zis Klaus cel mic. S\u0103-\u0163i spun toat\u0103 povestea \u015fi s\u0103-\u0163i mul\u0163umesc c\u0103 m-ai \u00eenecat, fiindc\u0103 dac\u0103 nu m\u0103 \u00eenecai, nu m\u0103 \u00eembog\u0103\u0163eam. Mare spaim\u0103 am tras c\u00e2nd m-ai aruncat \u00een ap\u0103; \u00eemi v\u00e2j\u00e2ia v\u00e2ntul pe la urechi \u015fi apa era rece. M-am dus repede la fund, dar nu m-am lovit, pentru c\u0103 pe fundul apei e o iarb\u0103 deas\u0103 \u015fi moale. Cum am ajuns s-a \u015fi dezlegat sacul \u015fi am v\u0103zut \u00een fa\u0163a mea o fat\u0103 frumoas\u0103, \u00een straie albe \u015fi cu cunun\u0103 verde pe cap. M-a luat de m\u00e2n\u0103 \u015fi mi-a spus: “Bine ai venit, Klaus cel mic! Uite, \u00ee\u0163i dau c\u00e2teva vite; pe drum mai \u00eencolo, cale de-o po\u015ft\u0103 de aici, este o ciread\u0103 \u00eentreag\u0103, \u0163i-o dau \u015fi pe aceea”.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0De-abia atunci am v\u0103zut c\u0103 r\u00e2ul era un drum pe care umblau to\u0163i acei care locuiesc \u00een mare. Vin de la mare pe fundul apei \u015fi merg p\u00e2n\u0103 departe \u00een\u0103untrul \u0163\u0103rii, p\u00e2n\u0103 acolo unde se ispr\u0103ve\u015fte r\u00e2ul. \u015ei pe fundul apei sunt numai flori frumoase \u015fi o iarb\u0103 verde \u015fi deas\u0103, de \u0163i-i mai mare dragul; \u015fi pe\u015ftii \u00eemi lunecau pe la urechi a\u015fa cum zboar\u0103 aici p\u0103s\u0103rile prin v\u0103zduh. \u015ei oamenii acolo sunt chipe\u015fi, \u015fi vitele grase \u015fi frumoase.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 Da\u2019 de ce te-ai urcat iar sus la noi? a \u00eentrebat Klaus cel mare. Dac\u0103-i a\u015fa de frumos acolo, eu nu m-a\u015f mai fi \u00eentors.<\/p>\n
