Once upon a time there was a small town under a hill. Over the town stood a chateau, from the windows of which a kind lady looked down on her folk. An imp peeked from under a former gunpowder mill. A small wizard in a coat with green pockets used to sit at the local pubs. The Donkey Yard was full of sawdust. Ladies in black with white caps silently walked on the sawdust, building a pyramid out of small wooden sticks. A brass band played silently in the main square and gentlemen and ladies silently turned their heads. Artists floated motionlessly in a fountain. They were drifted by the current, which turned slowly round in a direction opposite to that of the dancers. Then the artists crawled out of the fountain, put on multicoloured dressing gowns and went to bed. In the morning, a small black bus took them away. They were driving slowly through the countryside, singing. People turned their heads and started at them for a long time. Yes, that was roughly the way it was.
