Verified by Experts

Lencho was a farmer who lived in a house that was on the top of a small hill. From that height he could see the river and his fields. Lencho was an .ox. of a man. He was strong and worked like an animal in his fields. The only thing the earth and the fields needed was a heavy rain. At least, a shower was very necessary. Lencho.s older boys were working in the field. He could see huge mountains of clouds in the north-east. It gladdened his heart. As predicted by him, big drops of rains began to fall. The rain drops were like .new coins..
Unfortunately, Lencho.s happiness was short lived. Suddenly a strong wind began to blow. Along with the rain very large hailstones began to fall. Within an hour the house, the garden, the hillside and the fields were covered with a white sheet of hailstones. The leaves, trees and the flowers were destroyed. The hail had left nothing. The corn was totally destroyed. That year they would have no corn. They would survive on the mercy of God. All such dismal prospects worried Lencho.
