THE BEGGAR
Montāžas Teksta
- It seems to me that i met you the day before yesterday and you said that you were a student who had been expelled. " are you done with lying"
- Kind sir, i was a village school teacher and lost my job. Now i have an offer but no money to get there.
- Work! that's what you can do. You must work. Will you come and chop wood for me?
- Sir I was lying, I am neither a student nor a school teacher. No one will give me anything when I tell the truth, what can I do?
- Here, Olga, ' take this gentleman into the wood -shed and let him chop wood
- Olga glared wrathfully at the companion, shoved him aside, and unlocked the shed.
- Good! give him half a rouble. If he wants to, he can come back and cut wood on the first day of each month. We can always find work for him
- An hour later Olga came and announced that the wood had all been chopped
- My name is Lushkoff
- Later when Sergei moved into another house he hired the beggar to help him in packing and hauling of the furniture
- What is your name? I can now offer you some other cleaner employment. Take this letter to a friend of mine and you will be given some copying job to do. Work hard and don't drink. Goodbye.
- Two years later, one evening as Sergei was standing at the ticket window of the theatre he noticed Lushkoff beside him.
- I am a notary now. I am very grateful to you and your cook. She used to chop the wood for me. She did it all. She set me right and i shall never forget it.
- Lushkoff is that you? How are you? What are you doing
