Source language: Latin

Sed post cenam duo, senex et coniunx, miraculum viderunt. Vinum et cibus etiam erant in crateribus! Baucis pia et Philemon timidus timent et deos orant. Duobus senibus anser erat; Baucis et Philemon anserem prehendere et necare temptabant, sacrificium deis. Anser autem fugitavit ad deos qui dixerunt: "Nolite anserem necare. Sumus di, Iuppiter et Mercurius. Malum oppidum vastare debemus. Sed vobis praemium dabimus."
