One day Brother Jodar was on his way from the village fair where he had spent a week carousing. His head was buzzing from wine, and his belly was filled to the brim with rustic delicacies.
 
The snaking road led him to a dark forest. The intertwining spruce branches above his head were blocking the starlight, he could barely see where he was going... Suddenly a burly man stepped out from behind the trees, blocking the path ahead. In his hands - a heavy club...
 
Brother Jodar grabbed his staff tightly, took a step back, and addressed the big fellow:
 
"Well hello! Didn't expect to run into another vagabond like me at this hour. I heard it's not safe to wander this road so late in the night".
 
The fellow, who himself was a bandit, opened his mouth in surprise, but before he could say anything, Brother Jodar proceeded with his speech:
 
"The name's Brother Jodar, and I am a monk. I bring the word and the blessing of the Host to all those who've been wronged and abused. If you kneel right now, I'll blew you as well".
 
The fellow hesitated, but Brother Jodar looked at him with such fatherly kindness, that he gave in. The moment he got on his knees, the monk raised his staff... and smacked the villain at the back of the head with all his might. The thug tried to dodge the strikes, but to no avail - Brother Jodar was relentless in his fury. The thug tried to grab his club, but instead got smacked three more times on the nape of his neck, so he made a run for it, cowering from hits.
 
"Take this, and that!.. Where are you going? I only gave you a blessing for good health... How about one more for good fortune? Or maybe a blessing for a happy marriage?"

Book content

...One day Brother Jodar was on his way from the village fair, where he had spent a week carousing. His head was buzzing from all the mead he drank, his belly was filled to the brim, and he had a long road ahead of him.

The snaking path led him to a dark forest. As unperturbed as ever, Brother Jodar marched ahead, loudly whistling a tune. All of a sudden, a burly fellow stepped out from the treeline, brandishing a nasty-looking club.

Brother Jodar grabbed his staff tightly, took a step back, and started talking:

"Well hello! Didn't expect to run into another clueless vagabond like me at this hour!"

The fellow opened his mouth in surprise, but before he could reply, Brother Jodar proceeded with his speech:

"The name's Brother Jodar, and I am a monk. I bring the word and blessing of the Host to the wronged and abused. If you kneel right now, I'll bless you as well."

The fellow hesitated, but Brother Jodar looked at him with such fatherly kindness, that he gave in. The moment he got on his knees, the monk raised his staff... and smacked the villain on the back of his head! The thug tried to avoid it, but to no avail - Brother Jodar had the combat prowess of seven men. Nursing his wound, the thug reached for the club but instead got smacked again - there was nothing for him to do but to make a run for it, cowering from hits.

"Take this, and that!.. Where are you going? I only gave you a blessing for good health... How about one more for good fortune?.. Or maybe a blessing for a happy marriage?"
