Tuli viimein pieni poikanen, pieni piimäparta Jooseppi, avasi oven, ja sisään astui Timo taakkoinensa, äänetönnä, katsoen oikeasti, rävähtämättä eteensä.- Finally a boy, little milk-mustached Jooseppi, came and opened the door, and in stepped Timo with his load, not saying a word and staring unblinkingly straight ahead.
