    the last day because God and the devil are there below and they are saying "one for me and one for thee." Let is go down said the man until we see. When they went down they heard the men inside the wall saying "one for me and one for thee" and when they were finished counting they said what about the two out on the road. When the men on the heard this they thought it was themselves they were saying and they ran away as fast as they could.
