1. No use crying over spilt milk!
No use crying over spilt milk!
Copy !req
2. Come on, come on!
Copy !req
3. Quick, quick, quick!
Copy !req
4. You mucus pile.
Couldn't hide in your own house?
Copy !req
5. May the Wolf-Eateress smite
the lot of you! Scram!
Copy !req
6. Every last one! Out of my sight!
Copy !req
7. Back to your own damn mothers!
Copy !req
8. Bother them instead!
Copy !req
9. Have mercy.
Copy !req
10. On my blood I beg you.
Copy !req
11. On my life.
Copy !req
12. That is a child.
Copy !req
13. You don't want the nuisance.
Copy !req
14. Are you a fool, woman?
Copy !req
15. As if I'd want a child?
Copy !req
16. A bit of blood, that's all.
Copy !req
17. A fresh-born's.
Copy !req
18. I'll bring you other babies!
Copy !req
19. Girls, boys. A whole pile.
Copy !req
20. Only, on my sorrow,
Copy !req
21. leave me my Nevena.
Copy !req
22. So I can watch her grow a bit.
Copy !req
23. It's a daughter you want, is it not?
Copy !req
24. You're Old Maid Maria, are you not?
Copy !req
25. Spend my one witching spit?
Copy !req
26. On this runt?
Copy !req
27. I'll give her to you grown.
Copy !req
28. Let her turn 16 with me at least.
Copy !req
29. Then I'll give her to you as a maiden.
Copy !req
30. For what was done unto you.
Copy !req
31. Under this very roof.
Copy !req
32. A daughter. To serve you.
Copy !req
33. So you're not alone in your old age.
Copy !req
34. And?
Copy !req
35. What sort of covenant
did you have in mind?
Copy !req
36. One you seal with a word?
Copy !req
37. The Lord! The Lord is my witness. Lord.
Copy !req
38. Right, wonderful.
Copy !req
39. And this scrawny thing?
Copy !req
40. To get away without a mark?
Copy !req
41. I think not.
Copy !req
42. Don't, my chicken. Don't, my golden.
Copy !req
43. No fear now.
Not with the Lord our protector.
Copy !req
44. A holy place, my blood.
Copy !req
45. A sacred place.
Copy !req
46. She can't set one foot in here.
Copy !req
47. A Wolf-Eateress!
Copy !req
48. She snatched my baby girl!
Copy !req
49. A Wolf-Eateress...
Copy !req
50. The blue?
Copy !req
51. Is it the blue that speaks?
Copy !req
52. The red?
Copy !req
53. The red after the moon-white?
Copy !req
54. Is it? That speaks?
Copy !req
55. But never to me.
Copy !req
56. Never to me.
Copy !req
57. But their voices...
Copy !req
58. Again and again, they come back.
Copy !req
59. To me, my voice...
Copy !req
60. It won't come back.
Copy !req
61. Never ever.
Copy !req
62. Mama's puppy...
Copy !req
63. My voice...
Copy !req
64. The devil, she scratched it hard, so hard.
Copy !req
65. When I was tiny like a fist.
Copy !req
66. Mama tells me so.
Copy !req
67. But I think different.
Copy !req
68. I think the devil-scratch made it scared.
Copy !req
69. But my voice didn't run away.
Copy !req
70. It went hiding deep, deeper inside.
Copy !req
71. Where no one can touch it.
Copy !req
72. Do you understand
what devils prowl out there? Do you?
Copy !req
73. Have I raised a fool?
Copy !req
74. They would tear you to pieces
outside these walls! To pieces!
Copy !req
75. You know what I went through for you?
Copy !req
76. Speak.
Copy !req
77. Speak to me.
Copy !req
78. Their voices.
Copy !req
79. Speak them to me.
Copy !req
80. Or make mine nothing.
Copy !req
81. Make it blacknesses.
Copy !req
82. Make me blacknesses.
Copy !req
83. Oh, my little chick...
Copy !req
84. Stay there!
Copy !req
85. You won't take her from me!
Copy !req
86. No!
Copy !req
87. No!
Copy !req
88. You won't!
Copy !req
89. Come on.
Copy !req
90. Well, woman?
Copy !req
91. Before me, the sky swallowed the leaves.
Copy !req
92. And the martens. And the bees.
Copy !req
93. And now it swallowed me.
Copy !req
94. Well? You coming, or what?
Copy !req
95. And Mama, it swallowed her, too.
Copy !req
96. But her,
Copy !req
97. it chewed her up to bits.
Copy !req
98. Her voice, in blood, it thickens it.
Copy !req
99. Her skin, it unclothed it.
Copy !req
100. Cold... It is cold, this one.
Copy !req
101. Her underskin.
Copy !req
102. Drink.
Copy !req
103. The sky, it chewed her up to bits.
Copy !req
104. Spat out the whisper-mama bits.
Copy !req
105. Witch-mama is what was left.
Copy !req
106. Witch-mama and me, the witch.
Copy !req
107. Me, the witch.
Copy !req
108. Sometimes my wish is,
Copy !req
109. "Come back, whisper-mama."
Copy !req
110. Just for a little bit.
Copy !req
111. But the walls,
I never want them to come back.
Copy !req
112. Never ever.
Copy !req
113. What do we have here?
Copy !req
114. Now then, handsome.
Copy !req
115. What, you don't like me like this?
Copy !req
116. Look at him, the fresh lilac.
Copy !req
117. And I fixed my hair just for you.
Copy !req
118. Do you know anything?
Copy !req
119. Were you just going to stand there?
Copy !req
120. Let him cleave you in half?
Copy !req
121. Come back, whisper-mama.
Copy !req
122. You prefer day-old bread.
Copy !req
123. A dungeon.
Copy !req
124. Blood we need, woman, strength!
Not playthings.
Copy !req
125. You think it would be better with her?
Copy !req
126. I chose you. You.
Copy !req
127. I get one witching spit.
Copy !req
128. One.
Copy !req
129. What a waste you are.
Copy !req
130. Blood.
Copy !req
131. Not playthings.
Copy !req
132. What did you think me, a mother?
Copy !req
133. A fool?
Copy !req
134. From now on you're nothing to me.
Copy !req
135. Zip.
Copy !req
136. Let's see how you fare.
Copy !req
137. That there, it is...
Copy !req
138. Poplars.
Copy !req
139. That there, it is...
Copy !req
140. Sparrows.
Copy !req
141. But are sparrows snakes?
Copy !req
142. Are women wasps?
Copy !req
143. Kisses chains?
Copy !req
144. Me, am I devil?
Copy !req
145. For God's sake, it's been two hours.
Copy !req
146. Quick, on the ground!
Copy !req
147. Back to the corn.
Copy !req
148. Let's go, wife of Boris.
Copy !req
149. Whoa, there.
Copy !req
150. Damn, woman.
Copy !req
151. What isn't strange?
Copy !req
152. What isn't...
Copy !req
153. when you think about it?
Copy !req
154. Daughter-in-law!
Copy !req
155. What's struck you!
Copy !req
156. My, my, my...
Copy !req
157. What's with you, woman?
Copy !req
158. Woman madness.
Copy !req
159. Don't, son. Don't, my seed.
Copy !req
160. For my sake.
Copy !req
161. It's no way to fight back, daughter.
This unseemliness.
Copy !req
162. I know he makes it difficult.
It's not that I don't.
Copy !req
163. He learned it all from his father.
Copy !req
164. God smite the pair of them.
Copy !req
165. Let's go.
Copy !req
166. Come on, come on!
Copy !req
167. My, my, my...
Copy !req
168. Dear God, already! Daughter-in-law!
Copy !req
169. And her speech? Gone completely?
Copy !req
170. From the blows, all of it. From the blows.
Copy !req
171. For the laughing, the mouth opens.
Copy !req
172. And for the crying, too, the mouth opens.
Copy !req
173. Only when the man is in the room,
Copy !req
174. the mouth, it should never open.
Copy !req
175. The man, the eye water he wants.
Copy !req
176. From the woman.
Copy !req
177. How far you think to take it, huh?
Copy !req
178. Till all of us are a mess?
Copy !req
179. Learn to keep the gob shut.
Copy !req
180. To me, it won't come.
Copy !req
181. The eye water.
Copy !req
182. When the man is in the room,
Copy !req
183. you are not a woman.
Copy !req
184. You are stew. You are tea.
Copy !req
185. Your place, it is inside his palm.
Copy !req
186. You trickle out.
Copy !req
187. Like water,
you trickle out and around him.
Copy !req
188. But when you are with women in the room,
Copy !req
189. your mouth, it should never stop opening.
Copy !req
190. When you are with women...
Copy !req
191. You are a looking-glass.
Copy !req
192. When her eyebrows lift up,
Copy !req
193. yours, you lift them up, too.
Copy !req
194. When her eyes go wide,
yours, you make them go wide, too.
Copy !req
195. To the woman, you are glass.
Copy !req
196. To the man, you are water.
Copy !req
197. You seen yourself?
Copy !req
198. A twit.
Copy !req
199. Head to toe.
Copy !req
200. Everyone can see through it.
Copy !req
201. As if they couldn't.
Copy !req
202. But then, why should it surprise me?
Copy !req
203. That you'd choose prison.
Copy !req
204. What do you think?
Copy !req
205. That you're the first to try this?
Copy !req
206. Just wait. Just you wait.
Copy !req
207. They'll tear you to pieces.
Copy !req
208. To shreds.
Copy !req
209. Ah, my, my...
Copy !req
210. The world,
Copy !req
211. it has been here so long so long.
Copy !req
212. Everything
Copy !req
213. means something else.
Copy !req
214. And yet...
Copy !req
215. And yet...
Copy !req
216. What isn't strange?
Copy !req
217. - Look, look, look...
- Slow down, why the hurry?
Copy !req
218. That so? Then that's so.
Copy !req
219. All right, man.
Copy !req
220. All right.
Copy !req
221. Well...
Copy !req
222. Man, oh, man, oh, man...
Copy !req
223. Right then.
Copy !req
224. Yo, jughead.
Copy !req
225. Of all the times to go stud-horsing...
Copy !req
226. Got what he deserved, looks like.
Copy !req
227. Come on!
Copy !req
228. It's a burning, hurting thing, this world.
Copy !req
229. A biting, retching thing.
Copy !req
230. And yet...
Copy !req
231. And yet...
Copy !req
232. Come, one day without foolishness...
Copy !req
233. I am a man now, and so I can do it.
Copy !req
234. Go out where the grass is.
Copy !req
235. Where the soil is.
Copy !req
236. Clothe myself in sun.
Copy !req
237. In sun like liquid.
Copy !req
238. My, my, my...
Copy !req
239. Brother-in-law? What are you doing?
Copy !req
240. Out, spirit! Out with you this instant!
Copy !req
241. Get out! Shoo, shoo!
Copy !req
242. Had to take it that far.
Fornicating with a Wolf-Eateress.
Copy !req
243. - She must've yanked his wits.
- Hell, his manhood with them!
Copy !req
244. He always was insatiable.
Copy !req
245. But would she have left him alive?
Copy !req
246. She's a crafty one. A trickster.
Copy !req
247. That's what's gnawing at me.
Copy !req
248. A handsome one like him?
Copy !req
249. She'll want seconds, damn her.
Copy !req
250. You can breathe it in.
Copy !req
251. The smell like dirt when it's sour.
Copy !req
252. Dirt like they will bury them in.
Copy !req
253. Every day now,
Copy !req
254. I feel new rivers spin open inside me.
Copy !req
255. Whoosh, they whoosh in.
Copy !req
256. Deeper, deeper inside me.
Copy !req
257. Me the skin, they will bury it.
Copy !req
258. But me the witch?
Copy !req
259. They can't.
Copy !req
260. Unless she whose name I won't say...
Copy !req
261. Maybe she can bury me.
Snuff out the spin-waters.
Copy !req
262. Leave it so I am me the nothing.
Copy !req
263. What strangeness...
Copy !req
264. Me the nothing.
Copy !req
265. Come on.
Copy !req
266. Not much to show for it all, have you?
Copy !req
267. Now, now, brother, why so shy?
Copy !req
268. Let us have a look.
Copy !req
269. Think you're fooling someone?
Copy !req
270. Dressed in corpses?
Copy !req
271. Think they see you as one of them?
Copy !req
272. Just wait.
Copy !req
273. Just you wait.
Copy !req
274. A whole day chopping two logs...
Copy !req
275. Damn pansy-ass,
I can't stand to look at you.
Copy !req
276. Come on already,
I've got brandy warmed up.
Copy !req
277. I don't want you upstairs
until it's all chopped.
Copy !req
278. My, my, my...
Copy !req
279. It can't be a lie.
Copy !req
280. Can't be.
Copy !req
281. The smilings...
Copy !req
282. The cheek-pattings...
Copy !req
283. So simple.
Copy !req
284. When you know how.
Copy !req
285. Man...
Copy !req
286. So, so simple...
Copy !req
287. There's blood all over!
The rocks over there, she fell! Run, run!
Copy !req
288. So simple.
Copy !req
289. Bilia!
Copy !req
290. Ah, my Bilia...
Copy !req
291. Bilia, darling.
Copy !req
292. You maybe broke something?
Copy !req
293. - Must've bumped her head, that's all.
- Answer, Mommy.
Copy !req
294. - It'll pass, it'll pass.
- Answer, child.
Copy !req
295. What'd I tell you about the hair?
Copy !req
296. I didn't know...
Copy !req
297. I didn't know...
Copy !req
298. that it could be like this?
Copy !req
299. I didn't know.
Copy !req
300. The hands that light up...
Copy !req
301. The voices that warm up...
Copy !req
302. Fires...
Copy !req
303. Fires...
Copy !req
304. What soft fires.
Copy !req
305. How about a Mad Marko story?
Copy !req
306. No, a scary one.
Copy !req
307. What, Mad Marko's not scary?
Copy !req
308. Mad Marko just gets naked.
Copy !req
309. You seen a man get naked?
Copy !req
310. As if it's not scary.
Copy !req
311. How about Lydia and the Turk?
Copy !req
312. No, no, the one about Old Maid Maria!
Tell that one, Grandma?
Copy !req
313. Old Maid Maria...
Copy !req
314. All right.
Copy !req
315. Let's go with that one, I suppose.
Copy !req
316. This is something
that happened centuries ago.
Copy !req
317. When the Turk was at his cruelest.
Copy !req
318. Entire villages he emptied of boys.
Copy !req
319. Every last boy.
Copy !req
320. For Old Maid Maria,
there wasn't a bachelor left.
Copy !req
321. And so,
Copy !req
322. - Maria's life was like a river...
- My life is like a river.
Copy !req
323. It flows and flows,
Copy !req
324. and still it stays in the same spot.
Copy !req
325. It's become harder to cry.
Copy !req
326. Stupider, too.
Copy !req
327. Maria...
Copy !req
328. Wolf-Ea...
Copy !req
329. Find me a husband.
Copy !req
330. A husband. To give me a child.
Copy !req
331. A life.
Copy !req
332. Ahoy there!
Copy !req
333. Someone there knows my daughter?
Copy !req
334. Well, I've crossed many villages.
Copy !req
335. A friend mentioned Old Maid Maria.
Copy !req
336. Your son couldn't come in person?
Copy !req
337. A young man to cross the woods?
With the Turk hunting rebels?
Copy !req
338. Hardly wise.
Copy !req
339. Your aunt can take me in, I guess.
Copy !req
340. Dearie! Come, dearie.
Copy !req
341. Go right ahead.
Copy !req
342. Go to your betrothed.
We'll fix everything.
Copy !req
343. Oh, husband, come!
Copy !req
344. Go, dear.
Copy !req
345. Where the hell'd you go? Come here.
Copy !req
346. Come, come on...
Copy !req
347. The groom is to multiply his seed.
Oh, Lord...
Copy !req
348. Daughter, I beg you...
Copy !req
349. Look at my boy... My only-born...
Copy !req
350. You won't let him die a half-man?
Having spread no seed?
Copy !req
351. Send him to God a virgin? An "un-man"?
Copy !req
352. I know, daughter, I know.
Copy !req
353. It's how the act is done. My, oh, my...
Copy !req
354. You'll shut your eyes
for a bit and that's that.
Copy !req
355. What woman does not want a baby?
Copy !req
356. Oh, poor Maria, oh, our Maria...
Copy !req
357. So young for a deathbed, my, my...
Copy !req
358. Sister?
Copy !req
359. Mother?
Copy !req
360. You.
Copy !req
361. You I summon.
Copy !req
362. Which is the blood that heals?
Copy !req
363. That keeps my death at bay?
Copy !req
364. I've seen nothing of life.
Copy !req
365. Of the good in life.
Copy !req
366. This can't be the end.
Copy !req
367. Can't be.
Copy !req
368. Vileness with livestock will not pass.
Witchery will not pass. Hear us, oh, Lord.
Copy !req
369. Just wait.
Copy !req
370. Just you wait.
Copy !req
371. It's a burning, breaking thing.
Copy !req
372. This world.
Copy !req
373. A biting, retching thing.
Copy !req
374. And yet...
Copy !req
375. And yet...
Copy !req
376. Bilia!
Copy !req
377. The years?
Copy !req
378. Leaves in a flurry.
Copy !req
379. Lashing the cheek.
Copy !req
380. Man, oh, man, oh, man...
Copy !req
381. My, oh, my...
Copy !req
382. - Poor pansy-ass.
- Bit of blood and he's sniffling!
Copy !req
383. Boy, oh, boy, oh, boy...
Copy !req
384. Every me.
Copy !req
385. Every last me.
Copy !req
386. Me the woman...
Copy !req
387. Me the witch...
Copy !req
388. Me the bees buzzing in my bowels.
Copy !req
389. Every me. Every last me.
Copy !req
390. He'll find you out.
Copy !req
391. Throw you in the fire himself.
Copy !req
392. It's you then, Yovan dear.
Copy !req
393. So be it then. Bugger it.
Copy !req
394. - Cheers?
- Cheers.
Copy !req
395. Yovan hon, come.
Copy !req
396. Give that.
Copy !req
397. Come on, man, stand here!
Copy !req
398. Higher. Higher, damn it. A bit more...
Copy !req
399. Keep going, keep going.
Copy !req
400. Once more. Three times all up, yeah?
Copy !req
401. I wasn't counting, were you counting!
Copy !req
402. Come again, from the beginning.
One, two, three...
Copy !req
403. And where's the damn boy for the blessing?
Copy !req
404. Daughter, there's to be no shame here.
Copy !req
405. Yours is to serve a husband's will.
Copy !req
406. Where he wants to slip himself in,
you're to let him in.
Copy !req
407. No shame. None of that.
Copy !req
408. But no relish neither!
Copy !req
409. A virgin bride? To show relish?
Copy !req
410. It's just not done.
Copy !req
411. It baffles a husband.
Copy !req
412. Come on, come on! Enough!
Copy !req
413. Man...
Copy !req
414. Every me...
Copy !req
415. Every last me thirsts
Copy !req
416. for every him.
Copy !req
417. Only not the skin-flesh him.
Copy !req
418. Him the boy inside.
Copy !req
419. Him the boy with the eyes...
Copy !req
420. The eyes that look scared,
Copy !req
421. even when they're smiling.
Copy !req
422. It's that boy.
Copy !req
423. Him I want to put my arms around.
Copy !req
424. To hold him. To hold him.
Copy !req
425. Chase the scaredness away.
Copy !req
426. God damn...
Copy !req
427. Where's your husband?
Copy !req
428. Must have lost his way
