Position in the arm order: SECOND. T-ujpap-u1-R10p-v1 was written and committed at f5a5762 before this rendering was begun.

The carryover declaration, which is this artifact's whole reason for existing in this shape. The P rendering was not reopened while this one was written. It had nonetheless been written minutes earlier by the same agent and is in that agent's working memory, and no procedure available to the lead removes it. The translator also knew, while writing, that overlap between the two arms is the study's dependent variable. That knowledge can bias in either direction — toward divergence, by avoiding remembered wording, or toward convergence, by reusing solutions already found — and the translator cannot certify which. This is the confound E-20260731h-carryover exists to measure on subjects for whom the memoryless control is constructible, and it is why the lead's own pair is reported as a description and never as the test.

Contamination: none. Same basis as the P rendering: the published Worswick English of this chapter has never been opened, and the selection gate is deliberately not run in its selecting form per note (bel).

Judgment. The lead never judges its own translation (charter §5).

Translation

The new priest moved in. The people of Glogova brought him home on a single unpainted cart with two small cows harnessed to it, their horns bent outward. On the way the sexton, Peter Szlavik, milked the cows into a jug and offered some to him.

"The milk here is very good," he said. "Bimbo's especially. It's wonderful. Like some kind of ambrosia."

The new priest didn't own much. One unpainted wooden crate, a bundle of bedding, two walking sticks and a few pipe stems tied together with string.

In the villages along the way people kept needling the Glogovans.

"Couldn't you have put together a better rig than that for your priest?"

There's no denying it, the Glogovans were embarrassed, and rather than admit it they turned it on the young priest.

"It's fine. A calf could pull that much."

But if Janos Belyi brought nothing much to Glogova, he found nothing much there either. Only the parsonage, which was falling down. The previous priest's relatives had taken everything, and left a dog. It had been the dead priest's favorite. It looked like any other dog, in build and in coat, but its temperament had put it in a bad position, on its own: it was a thief where food was concerned, and around noon it went down the whole row of houses in order, looking into the kitchens, because its master used to get himself invited to a different farmer's house for dinner every day, and took the dog with him.

The dog's name was Vistula. It seems a long way to go for a river, when the Biela-Voda runs across the border right here. The dog was learning, painfully, that the two of them together had been worth more than one of them. Before this it had worked out, by dog logic, that the priest was eating the food that should have gone to it. True enough. But the priest was what supplied the standing. Now they chased Vistula out of the kitchens before it could get anything started, and some days they beat it.
