If the armadillo tattoo is mulit
She gives birth to her babies,
That's brother from sisters and sister from brothers
It never happens:
Or are boys born alone?
Or only girls get it.
And this has been the case since the time when the king of the Jews committed the massacre of two thousand infants, and the Virgin Mary, in order to save the baby Jesus, went to Egypt in a cart drawn by a small donkey.
And suddenly the royal guard caught up with them. The king ordered the guards to kill the baby Jesus and put his parents in shackles. But the Virgin Mary, with her tearful pleas, softened the heart of the chief of the guard and, in order to appease him, gave him a donkey.
The Virgin Mary and Saint Joseph had to drag the cart themselves, in which the baby Jesus was sleeping sweetly. It was hard for them, but they walked and moved forward...
Meanwhile, the guards were about to turn back, but the donkey became stubborn! As soon as the chief of the guard tried to reason with the stubborn man - he lashed him with a whip, and beat him with the shaft of a spear, and pounded him with a sheath - but the donkey resisted, and to no avail!
All the guards have already started working on it, but the donkey still doesn’t move!
Then the chief of the guard got angry, decided that the Virgin Mary had deceived him by slipping such a nasty animal, and ordered to catch up and capture the fugitives.
The Virgin Mary and Saint Joseph did not know what was happening behind them, they only heard the swearing of the commander and the screams of the soldiers who were trying to pacify the donkey.
The parents of baby Jesus were frightened by this noise and began to pull the cart as quickly as possible with all their might. Then baby Jesus woke up, he was hungry, and he had to be fed, but from grief and fatigue the Virgin Mary lost her milk...
Out of nowhere, the Mulita, the Virgin Mary, appeared and said to her:
- Mulita, I conjure with your children, give me a drop of milk for my boy!
Mulita gave a drop of milk, but it was not enough, and baby Jesus still cried from hunger. The Virgin Mary burst into tears and said:
- Mulita, call your daughters, let each give a drop of milk to feed my son!
“Senora Virgin Mary,” the mulita answered her, “I have many children, but few daughters...
She called her daughters, each gave a drop of milk to feed the baby Jesus, he was satisfied and stopped crying. Then all the daughters of the Mulita went their own way into the desert, only the Mulita mother remained with the Virgin Mary.
When they had already gone far, they suddenly saw that the guards were catching up with them, and an angry chief was galloping at their head!
Then the Virgin Mary cried out in fear:
- Mulita, help me pull the cart! Mulita helped, but Mulita did not have enough strength, and the cart hardly moved forward.
And the guards are getting closer and closer!
The Virgin Mary began to cry and said:
- Mulita, call your sons, let them help pull the cart!
“Senora Virgin Mary,” the mulita answered her, “I have many children, but few sons.”
She called her sons, who pulled the cart at a run.
And the guards are getting closer and closer!
Of course, now that the cart was pulled by the sons of the mulita, it rolled faster, but the horses mulit much more and ran briskly... and now the pursuers were already close... very close! But then a terrible sandstorm arose, and no matter how much the guards and their chief cursed, they still had to retreat.
When the baby Jesus was safe, the sons of the Mulita went on their way into the desert, leaving only their mother with the Virgin Mary. And the maiden said
Maria:
“Mulita, in gratitude for the milk of your daughters and the strength of your sons, from now on you will give birth to either only daughters or only sons.”
Mulita replied:
- Everything is in your will, Senora Virgin Mary! Only I will ask you for the same mercy for my godfather, the wife of the armadillo tattoo.
“So be it,” said the Virgin Mary.
Then the mulita ran into the desert to share the news with her godfather. What a joy it was for the armadillo's wife to have a tattoo!..
