This document contains excerpts from the Ukrainian writer Darya Korniy's work "Zvorotnyy Bik Tmyriavy" (The Back Side of Darkness). The passages describe Nevy, unusual people who can change their bodies and even essence, transforming into animals, birds, insects, snakes, trees, rivers, wind or clouds. The most skilled of the Nevy demonstrate their abilities in front of the Temple of Biloboh during a yearly celebration. The leader, Myroslad, performs an elaborate transformation sequence. The document provides material for dictation exercises focused on orthography and punctuation rules in the Ukrainian language.
