Un der Weg as sie 's gschafft hen, die menscht Zeit, sin sie verleicht freindlich warre mit me gleene Bu, odder ebbes ass so, un hen ihn ausgfrogt, un gewunnert, "Wieviel Schweschdere hoscht du. Wieviel Brieder hoscht du, un wu wuhnt dei Aendi?" — un so degleich. Their women came around, and when they did not beg, then they were fortune tellers. And the way that they worked it, most of the time, they got, perhaps, friendly with a small boy or something as such, and interrogated him, and wondered, "How many sisters do you have? How many brothers do you have, and where does your aunt live?" — and so forth.
