Of Nikolas Village, Part IIII

And so the Womone, in hayste, did aske the Nikolasus of hisse wounde, and he did responde in earnest, for he was a gentel-man, and he spoke in wayes of Christe, and he didde behoove a goode manne, and she was startled, and alarmmed, and alacke, and bemused, and petrifyed, and putrifyed, and she didde tayke bandages, and wrappinges, and iodines, and she wrapped the wrappinges around the heade of the Nikolaus, such that her bosomme came to his fayce, manie tymes, however, begin a gentel-man, the Nikoaus did not licke it vigourouslie, nor did he attempt to burie his heade into the furrowes, and it wasse goode.

And the Nikolas, bandaged, did come unto the womon and say hisse queste, that he did wante to retrieve his greatcoate, which he had lefte at her bodie, a few dayes agoe, and she did remember this incident, and with impunitie, did remember the Nikolause and his boorishe and bigoutous behavioure, and she did huff, and puff, and blow at himme, and he was profounded. Such that the womon, feeling it right to return the coate to the rightefulle ownere, regardless of the poor morale and the bade attitude of such ownere, did go into the coat-storinnge roome, and retrieve itte, and take it to himme. And he said to herre thank you verie muche and he took his hatte and putte on his coate and prepared to depart into the cold, whintry nighte.

But the womone, being a gentel-man, did not wante the Nikolause to go into the nighte in the blissard that has rescently beingged, and she did invite himme to staye in her houme, and to lie in her beddechambres, however, the nikoluse, being a gentel-man, adamantlie decklined this invitation, and he asked to be put bhy the coale-heathe to sleep, in the warmthe, and she, being a gentle-man, of coarse said to him you may make your selfe comfort able in there, and warme upp in the nighte.

So the night passed and it was colde and stormy and white and whintry and blissard and sexxye, and the womone arose from the bedhambres, while wearing her bed-shirtes, which was quite transparente, espeical through the goode light of the sunne that rised, and she walked, quite absente mindedlie, into the parlour, and the drawing roome, and the Nikoluas saw her, in splendid nackednesse, and though, being a gentel-man, did avert hisse eyes immediately, such that the womone was quite flushed, and she retreated to the bed-chambre to reste.

And the sunne came upp and the light flooded the crevasses of the old house and the old paintes and the wooden furnitures came to a sparkel, and the nikolous admired itte, but then he knewed that it was the righte time to depart, so he came into the bedde chambres to say fare well to the womone, but the womone, changing into her day-clothes, wasse nacked, and the Nikolas saw this, and, being a gentel-man, did avert hise eyes, and he ran oute, in a panick, and itte wasse goode.
