- Kassipojad olid pandud küll kotti ja kivi sinna sisse, et see nad rutem põhja viiks. Tema aga oli võtnud kassipojad kotist välja ja pildunud üksikult vette, et näha, kuidas nad upuvad.
- The kittens had been put in a bag and a stone put in it, so that it would bring them to the bottom more quickly. But he had taken the kittens out of the bag and thrown them into the water, one by one, to see how they would sink.
