16. "Pity it is that poor young deer, the child of the deceased mother—it is painful to think—puts confidence in me who am mean, wicked and hard-hearted like a hunter, and who am unfortunate as having done no righteous deeds; it does not (care to) know my mind and, like a good soul in the purity of its own heart, goes to me.
