- I'll tell you, synteknos, says Mastromarkos, those games are
really very dangerous and you shouldn‘t have joined in. Those games
are not for people who are smart. But since the doctor wants to
give you back what you have missed, I will help you for the sake of
your wife and your children. Remember that in the future. Now tell
me the riddle.
- Well, Mastromarkos, the man told me:
- Two are those that stand and two are those that move
Two are those that look the same but cannot get along
Two are those that are not similar and two are those that are
separate.
Mastromarkos laughed said to his best man‘s wife:
- Go and set the table ready. Your husband will take his property
back.
His best man said with a happy face:
- God bless ,sinteknos. But, tell me, which is the explanation of the
riddle? Did you find it? What is that easy for you?
Well, yes, synteknos. This is what you are going to tell to that
man who took your property. The two which stand, are the sky
and the earth. Those which move are the sun and the moon.
The two that look the same but are totally different are the
sleep and the death. Those that do not match are the day
and the night. Finally, those that are separated are the sea
and the land.
-Thanks you, Mastromarkos. You became my savior. How can I
repay you for saving me?
