Description:
The prisoners took care of the sick eagle for a long time and fed it. When the bird got better, he is happily released with exclamations: "He feels freedom." The text is placed at the bottom of the black hole.

Заключенные долго ухаживали за больным орлом и кормили его. Когда птице стало лучше, его радостно отпускают с восклицаниями: «Волю почуял». Текст помещен на дне черной дыры.
