Once there lived an old man Kuzma. His name was Kuzma. He was completely alone, he had no one. He had no wife, the poor devil, he had no wife, he was all alone, he had one horse. In the summer he cut grass for the horse. He cut and cut and then sat down to smoke a pipe. He arranged a rope on his knees. He smoked his pipe. Mosquitoes bit his head, his bald head. He had no hair. He smacked his head with his hand and the mosquitoes rolled down onto the rope. He counted them, all of twenty mosquitoes. He smoked his pipe.

“I,” he said, “am cutting grass. I’m working in the heat in the midst of so many mosquitoes. When my hand slipped, I killed all of twenty people at one time. In this country there’s a person from the rich city, he has a daughter. I’ll go there. Would it be so bad to get married? I have so much strength. I can kill a hundred people, I can finish everybody off. I have so much strength and I’m working here. What strength will I have if I live for someone?” He set off home, made some tea, drank the tea, hitched up the horse, got on and started down the path.

He went along the path, he went for a long or a short time, another path appeared. The path he was going along went there.

He has a daughter, I’m going to get married.” “What kind of strength do you have?” “I have the strength of fifty men, I’m a famous man.” “Oh, you have the strength of fifty men, I have the strength of twenty men, that almost makes one hundred. Let’s go together.” He had a shaman’s knife, the famous man.

They set off together. They went for a long or a short time, in a forest on the path they met a man. He was also striding down the path that led to him. “Kuzma, where are you going?” “Oh,” he said, “I’m going off to get married. In a corner of the country there’s a person from the rich city. He has a daughter. I’m going to marry his daughter.” “You,” he said, “will start to wage war. He has a lot of soldiers. What kind of strength do you have?” Kuzma said: “I have the strength of twenty men. This man has the strength of fifty men.” “Won’t you offer me a seat?” “Do you have enough strength?” “I,” he said, “have the strength of a hundred men.” “Oh, if that’s the way it is, take a seat, we’ll ride together.

They were three men. They rode on, they went for a long or a short time, another path appeared. A man was striding down the large path, to the path they were riding along. “Kuzma, where are you going? There are so many of you seated.” “We’re going to get married.” “You’re going to get married, but do you have enough? Maybe you’re going in an empty sled.” Kuzma said: “I have the strength of twenty men.” “And I,” he said, “have the strength of fifty men, and he has the strength of a hundred men.” “Won’t you take me along?” “And do you have enough to help?” “I,” he said, “have the strength of one hundred fifty men.” “If that’s the way it is, great. Take a seat, too, and we’ll be off.”

He took a seat, too, and all four of them set off together. They went and went noiselessly. They came to the filed of the man from the rich town. They purposely made themselves comfortable on the field and started to build a house on the filed. The man from the rich town heard news of them: “What kind of people have arrived and are ruining the earth of my filed?” They wrote a letter, held a meeting, took the letter, hung it on a pillar. This is what they wrote: “We are four men, four warriors, one has the strength of twenty men, the second has the strength of fifty men, the third has the strength of a hundred men and the fourth has the strength of a hundred fifty men. Such warriors have come, have come with war to the man from the rich town to take a wife.”

Well, the man from the rich town understood and sent a soldier. “Go there and find out how these people live. Powerful people have come, they’ve ruined the filed of my people. They came there and wrote like this.” The soldier came back and said to the man of the rich town: “People such as this have arrived.” So, the next day came, the four men were talking to each other. The host Kuzma, the man with the twenty strength, prepared himself. And for the first time war came, so many men came, people came to fight. He sent fifty soldiers. These soldiers arrived. They looked out of the window: “Come on, warrior with fifty strengths, go, chop, kill, this is your matter.”

He went out there and chopped and chopped. He chopped them all up, only one commander remained. “You,” said the man with the fifty strengths, “I won’t kill. Go, go home, let everything come to a good end, he shouldn’t send any more soldiers. That was enough fighting.” No. The man from the rich town did not understand. The other came back and said: “All of my men have been killed. He said we should stop.” “Well, why should we stop? Come, we’ll send another hundred soldiers. This warrior must be killed with a hundred strengths.” A hundred men were sent. A hundred soldiers.

He hacked them all to death. The man from the rich town had run out of soldiers. He sent the commander home. “Fine,” he said, “I have no soldiers, go and call them here to make a banquet for the town, to make a banquet for the village. If I have to give my daughter in marriage, I’ll give her. I don’t have soldiers like that, there’s enough strength there, I have no people.”

Well, he called them there, they came there, they celebrated the wedding. They drank day and night, they ate day and night. They prepared the wife for him. They took the wife. They went back, they hitched up the horse: “Come on, let’s go home.” Kuzma had fought so that twenty strengths still remained. He had not tried it out. Well, they were going home on the path. Back on the path they reached the path of the man with five hundred strengths: “Well,” he said, “go now. Kuzma, on the day that it occurs to you, put out cups for a feast, fill it with food. If you had a grandfather, I would have the strength of your grandfather, I could help you. You did not kill mosquitoes. We really have much strength, we came to help you.

Where did this man with the sleds get to? He was gone again. There was nothing. Three men remained.

We found you a wife. Now on the day when the thought comes to you, put out cups for a feast, put out a kettle, live well, live for a long or a short time.” So.
