alikadakad (sound of walking or moving) she will at once make a movement.”  When she snapped her perfume Linongan moved at once.  “I use my power so when I snap my perfume banawes she will blow out her breath!” When she snapped her perfume, she at once breathed a long breath. “Wes how terrible my sleep was,” said Linongan. “‘How terrible my sleep’ you say.  The tattooed alzados nearly inherited you.  I went to follow you because they took you to their town and they danced with your head,” said Awig.

Not long after Awig went to take four small branches of the tree and he used magic, “I use my power so that when the four sticks will stand they will become a balaua.”  He used his power and truly the four sticks became a balaua and Aponibolinayen commanded someone to pound rice.  Ten days later they made Libon, on the tenth night.  When it became morning Awig commanded someone to go and get the betel-nut which is covered with gold.  As soon as they arrived they oiled the betel-nuts.  “Ala, all you betel-nuts, you go to invite the people from the other towns who are relatives so that they will come to make balaua with us.  You go to all the towns where our relatives live and invite them, and if they do not wish to come you grow on their knees.”  So the betel-nuts went.

Not long after, when all the people had finished dancing and the balaua was over, the people went home and Iwaginan was engaged to Linongan.  Aponibolinayen said, “We do not wish that our daughter be married yet,” but Awig agreed.  “Why do you agree, Awig, do you not like our only daughter?” said Aponibolinayen.  “I like her, but it is better for her to be married.  He seems to have
