and
There were at the father twelve sons, all tall yes daring.
They lived on the big glade, among dense wood. Were engaged in an economy, hunted on wild animals and birds.
The old man-father as the pigeon grey-haired, sat also in the summer in and only disposed. Also were in a family a harmony yes love.
sons, have gone at them the children. Big the family has grown. All obeyed the old man-father, and everyone did the work.
But here the father after a while has died. In a family disagreement also has gone. Wives of the brothers quarrel, one another eat, are not present . And such the quarrel has gone between them, as husbands cannot do anything. Wives shout, wish to share.
“Well, - brothers think, - it is necessary to share”. Have started to share. Yes it has put not such and easy as it seemed to them. Somehow with shout yes have divided good and cattle. And as business has reached the earth, hardly each other not : cannot divide the clearing in any way that it was insulting to nobody. brothers because of the earth also became one another enemies.
Only two younger brothers lived among themselves in the big consent: where one, there and another. They have not wanted to fight with brothers for the earth, have left a hut and have gone on light to search other haven.
Brothers have made of two oaks the big sledge, have harnessed in them of six pairs an oxen, have put good, have planted wives with children and have set out on sledge on sand. And cows and small cattle have followed them.
Oxen on sand has dragged oak sledge a little and steels as driven. And wheels at brothers was not, and anything about them was not known by them. After all anywhere from the wood not only in the summer, but also in winter did not go.
Brothers round have started to saw off and to enclose them under runners. Slide , sledge forward creep. Has bothered the younger brother to enclose under runners , here and he speaks to the senior:
- Give we will make so that under runners turned.
Also they have made the wheels first in those edges. Now an oxen so brothers and have sat down on a cart is easier have gone. Go and as it they without wheels managed till now.
They went, went, have reached to the big river. Have examined the river - everywhere it deep, anywhere is not present a convenient place to move . And here such storm has risen, that wood as if the animal, roars. The storm breaks trees as straws, and throws in the river. They float on the river the whole heaps.
The younger brother has looked at them, has thought and has guessed how to get over through the river.
They have caught with the brother of trees, have cleared them of branches, have connected logs one with another and have made a strong raft. And when the storm has ceased, have dragged the cart on a raft. Stand on a raft, operate long poles - hooks, and the raft, as the ship floats to itself.
Have seen cows, that an oxen has floated on other coast, has rushed in the river for them after. Only pigs yes sheep were afraid to jump in water. Stand ashore, grunt, bleat. Brothers with a raft have returned back and have taken away them.
So were forwarded all through the wide and deep river.
They have gone further and have got into such dense forest, as the end to it is not present.
Brothers in more glades yes have started to cut through rowing to pave. Yes where there! The further, the wood all more densely and more densely, and in it such as to get out it is impossible.
The big brother , .
- I will remain, - he speaks to the younger brother, - I here, after all force will not suffice from this to wood to get out.
Also remained to live with a family in wood. Since then and him also weigh its sort began to name fields-pikes.
And the younger brother has not wanted to remain in wood. It was strong, as round, and hoped for the force. It one laid glades, rowing and went further.
And till our times there were to Polesye those glades yes corduroy roads that the younger brother has made a large number.
Whether long it so got out of dense wood, or is short, but here glades yes sandy glades at last began to come across. The younger brother on these glades has lodged, began to plough up them yes to sow bread.
Also have since then nicknamed it and weigh its sort .
And were then settled and , have occupied also other woods and fields, became kind neighbours.
So they live and now.
