:58:02
He pushed his chickpeas
down too deep with a stick.

:58:06
They won't even yield
a salad bowl full.

:58:08
He planted the onions
right under the olive tree!

:58:15
And he didn't plant
the potatoes deep enough.

:58:19
He doesn't sow seeds,
he throws them!

:58:22
They'll grow in tufts,
like hair on a mangy dog!

:58:33
If that loony thinks
he can feed a family on that--

:58:41
When I look at him,
I have to laugh...

:58:45
but it also breaks my heart.
:58:49
I feel like showing him
how to do it right.

:58:52
Let him do it his way.
:58:54
It's not the best way,
but it's better for us.

:59:05
Are you going on a picnic?
:59:08
We're getting drinking water
at the Plantier spring.

:59:11
Our cistern is empty
and we mustn't impose on you.

:59:14
Mine's been getting empty too.
:59:17
I've a feeling
it'll rain tonight.

:59:20
Why? You have rheumatism?
:59:22
No, thank goodness!
:59:24
But in May we only had
three days of rain instead of six.

:59:28
It hasn't rained in June,
so we're owed fiive days of rain!

:59:33
The heavens have 48 hours
to settle their debt.

:59:39
What's the shortest way?
:59:42
You'd better go the easiest way.
:59:45
Follow the valley down,
but before you get to the village...

:59:49
turn right and follow
the road to the grotto.

:59:53
Thank you. See you tonight!
