Caucasian chalk circle has been based on the sense of justice in the land. The above saying is reflected throughout the book in three main instances.
First of these is the decision in the prologue to let the fruit farmers keep the valley although originally it belonged to the goat keepers. It is seen that this decision was reached upon when the fruit farmers presented a more elaborate plan than would be of more benefit than that of the original owners who were only interested in their own gain. Here it is agreed that the ones who cared more for more deserved the price.
The second scenario is witnessed at the court room where a drunk is chosen for a judge. This is because he proves to be more reasonable and understanding when it comes to his judgements. Although a drunk with little qualification for the job,his sound judgement puts him above the prince's nephew. It doesn't end here with this controversial judge though as his judgements one by one live to support the saying above.
The third and final scene where this is reflected is where the governor's son is handed to his adoptive mother a maid instead of been given to his biological mother who was the governor's wife. The consideration the maid showed to the child during the cue and the trial itself led the judge to make the unsuspected ruling.
All these illustrate that sound judgement involves giving what is truly deserved no matter what the odds might be.
