he strove to his balance the ache of his wast seemed to lessen.
He bent his heek sdaesly allowing the pain to ease. For a second the

as in the years gone by.
Shanu was treidging home wands called out to him are the embankments
done?
When you sowing heed?
He knew the answes very well pandhni tossed the question back at him

He picked up his shert from the embankment and tossed it one the

Plaeing his towel aeross the neekl.
Drawing out a beedi from the packet he passed it to shanes and as he lit
it for him asked when do you show?
Haven¶t finished plaeyhing the field breadthewise yet why so late?
What¶s so take about this?
Some every year you finith frist we follow
You should show first one of these years will I get more yield?

joking?
Where would I get labous for that short g work?
Who will work for us?
Why won¶t they worek derjone?
All right they will work but you don¶t get labones like you used to in old
days.
Earlien all tyone had to do was to feed them well and give them energh

To day man one measured by money pandhi quicked his pace. You are
so lucky shanu said straehly his at lost you own that pateh of land but
what about us?
The bhatkan dosen¶s want we has to pick up are belonging and more.
I didn¶t buy this land because it belongs to my forefosthens so what?
You have to belacky to get suth an inhoi tance we have pareening and
