To this question, they all answered: "Yes, we heard it all, but, frankly speaking, we didn't understand at all what was going on. So we unavoce please, implore, ex nunc prout extunc to close the case as you understand it Well, we absolutely agree, all agree." "Well, gentlemen," said Paiguguet, "since you agree, I shall do so; but I do not think the case is so difficult as you imagine. Your Statutes of Gaddo, Laws of Frater, Gallus method⑤, Quinque pedum method⑥, Vinum method⑦, Si dominus method⑧, Mater method⑨, Mulierbona method⑩, Si quis method(11), Pomponius method(12), Fundi method(13), Emptor method(14) , Pretor's Law(15), Venditor's Law(16), etc., and many others, which in my opinion are much more complicated than this suit(17)."

After speaking, he turned around in the hall, and turned around again, and everyone could see that he was thinking deeply, because he gasped again and again, like a donkey that is too tightly girthed. Same.It turned out that he was thinking of a way that would be fair to both parties, without favoring one another; then he sat down and began to pronounce the following sentence: "Having accepted, understood, and carefully studied the dispute between Monsieurs de Beizcure and Monsieur de Huymoignes, this court renders the following judgment: "Due to the impulsiveness of the bats, boldly leaving the summer solstice line to pursue idle games, because they are afraid of the stimulation of the sun, they attack with pawns first, this is the weather in Rome, a statue of Jesus on horseback, with a bow hanging from his waist, the plaintiff There is a just cause for repairing ships, for making the old woman wear one shoe and one bare foot, and to blow the air so that her conscience is hardened and hardened, as trivial as the hairs of eighteen cows, and as much as embroidered as many pins.

"Similarly, the plaintiff should be acquitted because of the liberty to defecate, and it is supposed that his excuse for not being able to defecate easily was determined by a pair of gloves that were incensed with crackling farts by the light of a walnut-butter candle, just as in Like his native Mirbale, the sails were set up with bronze balls, the servants were carelessly cooking the dishes from the Loire River, and the bells of the eagles were made in the Hungarian pattern. Brother never forgets to put it in a basket with a border, embroidered with three gold-rimmed coats of arms, and beats a worm-like parrot with a feather duster in a small shed against the wind.

① Latin: "from the oral way." ② Latin: "with one voice." ③ Latin: "immediately, immediately." ④ Latin: "Brother Law". ⑤ Latin: "Galus Law", which belongs to "Jurisdiction". ⑥ Latin: "Compendium of the Five Laws of Bedum", which belongs to "Roman Law". ⑦ Latin: "Liquor Law". ⑧ Latin: "Autonomous Law". ⑨ Latin: "Family Organization Law". 10 Latin: "Marriage Law". ① The sentence of the Judgment of Paiguguay, like the two litigants, is a piece of incoherent writing.

① Mirbale: The place name of Poitiers, where the poor smashed walnuts to make candles for light. "As for the defendant, whether he was a shoe mend, a cheese eater, or a mummy maker, it seemed right that he didn't ring the bell, and the defendant had argued well, and the court sentenced him to three years. A full cup of yogurt should be lumpy, as bright as pearls, piece by piece, according to the way in his hometown, the defendant should pay in full when the weather in May is like August and a half. "However, the defendant still needs to provide fodder and cotton wool, so as to block the things in his throat, in pieces.

"Still be friends as before, reconcile as before, free of any fees, and wait for this." After the verdict was pronounced, both sides went back very satisfied with the referee, which is really an incredible thing. For since the Flood, and until the thirteenth fifty years have elapsed, there have never been but these two men, who had hoped for opposite verdicts, and were satisfied with one verdict at the same time. The judges judging there and the scholars were all stunned for three hours.In a case so difficult and delicate at Paiguguet, they saw so distinctly his superhuman wisdom that they all admired it beyond description, and if they had not been sobered up with a great deal of vinegar and rosewater, Having regained their usual sense and sanity, they may still be there now.After the incident, there were voices of praise to God everywhere.
