DIE AHNUNG	THE PREMONITION

Ich trank meinen Morgenkaffee und ahnte nichts Böses.	I drank my morning coffee and felt no horrid premonition.
Es klingelte. Ich ahnte noch immer nichts Böses.	The doorbell rang. I felt still no approaching evil.
Der Briefträger brachte mir ein Schreiben. Nichts Böses ahnend, öffnete ich es.	The postman brought me a letter. Feeling no trepidation, I opened it.
Es stand nichts Böses darin.	There was nothing horrible therein.
Ha! rief ich aus. Meine Ahnung hat mich nicht betrogen.	"Ha," I cried aloud. My hunches had not deceived me.
