    and my brother and sister turned the hay with hay rakes. We left it there to fry for a few hours and in the evening we made small cocks of it. Night was falling then and we had to come in out of the hay field. We all felt very tired after our day in the hay field. That night going to bed we all prayed again so that we might get the next day fine to finish the hay.
