Perhaps he'll let us milk a cow so that we can drink milk--Crispin likes milk so much.

Who can tell! Maybe they'll give us a little calf if they see that I behave well and we'll take care of it and fatten it like our hen.

I'll pick fruits in the woods and sell them in the town along with the vegetables from our garden, so we'll have money.

I'll set snares and traps to catch birds and wild cats, [61] I'll fish in the river, and when I'm bigger, I'll hunt.

I'll be able also to cut firewood to sell or to present to the owner of the cows, and so he'll be satisfied with us.
