"A maid, wishing to season bigos in haste, went with the pot for some vinegar to the cupboard, where, between other bottles, stood ink, as it was a time of frost. Having poured it in, she serves me bigos of a new style. I try some: the dog wouldn't eat it! And I think to myself, I have never seen bigos in mourning. So having noticed the mistake, I point at the cook: don't let the thief make an inkwell out of my rear!"
