- Я-ж, як і раней казаў вам, просты павераны і выконваю чужыя даручэнні, за што мне і заплачана. Я лічу іх зусім недарэчнымі, але атрымаў грошы зусім не за тое, каб выказваць свае думкі.
- Ja-ž, jak i ranjej kazaŭ vam, prósty pavjerany i vykónvaju čužyja daručenni, za što mnje i zaplačana. Ja liču ix zusim njedarečnymi, alje atrymaŭ hróšy zusim nje za tóje, kab vykazvacʹ svaje dumki.
