Usage examples of "janko".

The youngest whose name was Janko was not as bright and clever as his brothers but he was honest and, moreover, he had a good heart and in this world a good heart, you know, is more likely to bring its owner happiness than wicked brains.

Then they ate together and the Little Fox allowed Janko to pat her head.

Near it were two spades, Janko in great excitement snatched up the first that came to his hand and began to dig.

Alas, it was the golden spade and as Janko drove it into the earth it sent out a loud ringing sound that instantly woke the guards.

Little Fox was waiting for him and Janko had the shame of confessing that he had forgotten the warning about the golden spade and had been caught.

Every last one of them came running to the Apple-Tree and in no time at all they had captured poor Janko and carried him to their master, the king.

Little Fox was waiting for him and again Janko had the shame of confessing that he had forgotten the warning about the golden pole and had been caught.

They caught Janko, of course, and when morning broke carried him to their master, the king.

For a moment Janko was frightened, then he remembered that the awful creature was only an empty ghost.

Little Fox meantime had caught up with Janko and the Golden Maiden and the Golden Horse.

Golden Apple-Tree, Janko left the Golden Horse and the Golden Maiden outside and took the fox horse in to the king.

Fox soon caught up with the real Golden Horse and with Janko and the Golden Maiden who were holding in their arms the Golden Cradle and the Golden Apple-Tree.

Then she turned and trotted off into the woods and Janko rode homewards without her.

Unfortunately Janko had not told him what reprobates the two older sons were, and the older brothers themselves had given their father to understand that it was really they who had found the Magic Grape-Vine and rescued the Golden Maiden.

You see instead of being grateful to Janko for having saved their necks from the angry farmers, they hated him worse than ever.
