Aja board, 'said Mr. Priest. 'It is first kebiasaannya like this, the graves in the church.' Oh that. irma move slowly, walking while reading any posts in the tomb-stone is. Ugh, if this can be done with Mr. Lilik, Netherlands Literary UI lecturers who examine the gravestone gravestone-Dutch heritage. 'This is to remind us ...' says Ela. '... that we will die?
