through half the countries of the world, abiding to their own laws. Scorning 【S2】______

fascinating or fearful, 【S4】______
while to the gypsies the settling people were equally fearful. 【S5】______
Gypsies acquired in ancient times their traditional occupations like 【S6】______
smiths and horse traders. They plied their crafts from village to village,
presenting entertainments to attract townsmen. So they became musicians,
magicians, animal trainers, and acrobats.
A folk saying held that when a gypsy woman predicted misfortune it always
came fact because she stole something from the victim. The gypsies 【S7】______
were known also for the big trick which they deceived the credulous. A typical 【S8】______
trick was to convince a peasant to bury his money, promising that it 【S9】______
would be multiplied by magic powers; when the peasant returned to dig
them up, the money and the gypsies were both gone. The term "gypsy" 【S10】______
soon became synonymous with all the robbers and brigands who infested the countryside. [br] 【S3】
