Jevrosima, the matron, nourished her, 70
Yea, and gave her in marriage
In Rudnik the white town,
In the great house of Dizdarić
Where were nine fair brethren.
Thence had Marko strong friends,
And oft would he visit his sister-in-God,
As she had been his own born sister,
And there full oft he quaffed the wine-cup.
