And so Mr Tauchen didn't give him anything and kept the two guilders for himself. Then he took me to the storehouse next door, gave me a box on the ears and said I would get a hundred more if I ever dared say that he didn't write it himself, and if Ferdinand should go and complain to the old man I should say that he was a liar.
Baina Ferdinand otseina gutiziak menderatu zuen. Ezetz, edo dena, edo ezer ez. Hortaz, Tauchen jaunak ezer eman ez eta bi txanponekin gelditu zen: eraman ninduen aldameneko biltegira, masailekoa eman zidan, eta esan zidan beste ehun halako emango zizkidala otoitzaren egilea bera ez zela esatera ausartzen banintzen, eta Ferdinand otseina nagusiarengana kexatzera joanez gero, esan behar nuela Ferdinand otseina gezurtia zela.
