²⁸Ikabheje a Pauli gubhautiye lilobhe bhalinkuti, “Unaipoteshe, pabha uwe tubhowe tupali pano.”

²⁹Gwashemiye kandili, jikaisheje linjola jula gwabhutushile nkati, gwaigwishiye pamakongono ga a Pauli na a Shila akuno alitetemela kwa jogopa.

³⁰Kungai gwabhakopoyenje palanga, nigwashite, “Ndende bhuli niitapule?”
