five times the balaua full,” and Ebang said to her son, “We have to pay again the balaua five times full.”  “That is all right mother I have many jars which my alan mother gave me,” so they gave the extra jars which they asked.  As soon as they gave all the jars they took Aponigawani of Kaodanan with them.  As soon as they arrived they made a big party, and they invited the alan.  As soon as the alan arrived at the party they danced and gave more presents to them.  After that the alan and the other people went home and Aponigawani and Dangdangayan had their own house which the alan gave them.  This is all.

Aponitolau told Aponibolinayen that they would go to the river to wash their hair.  Not long after Aponibolinayen went with him.  When they arrived at the spring they washed their hair.  As soon as they washed their hair they went to get the lawed [179] vine and they went back home.  As soon as they reached home Aponitolau said to Aponibolinayen, “Will you comb my hair?  I am anxious to go to fight.”  So Aponibolinayen combed his hair.  As soon as she combed it he said, “Ala, you go and get my clout, my belt which is sewed with gold, and my striped coat, and also get my ambosau.” [180] Aponibolinayen got them and Aponitolau dressed up.  As soon as he was dressed he took his shield, his headaxe, and spear, and went.  He struck the side of his shield, and it sounded like one hundred people.  While he was walking and striking his shield in the middle of the way, Gimbagonan, the wife of Iwaginan, heard him, when he was near to Pindayan.  When he passed by the town he continued toward the town of Giambolan.  In a short time he arrived at the well of Giambolan.  He met the young girls who were dipping water from the well.  He killed all of them with his headaxe and spear.  Not long after he cut off their heads and he went up to the town and directly to the house of Giambolan.  When he arrived at the house, he said, “Good morning, Giambolan.  Go and get your shield, headaxe and spear, and boar’s tusk armlet for we are going to fight here in your yard.”  Giambolan got his headaxe and spears for he wanted to fight.  As soon as he arrived where Aponitolau was he threw his spears at him and Aponitolau soon got all the spears which he threw.  Then he tried to cut off Aponitolau’s head, but Aponitolau got his headaxe and said to him, “Now I am next, for you did not injure me at all,” and Giambolan said, “Yes.”  Aponitolau commanded his headaxe and spear to go to Giambolan’s side as soon as he threw them; so Giambolan laid down and the headaxe went and cut off Giambolan’s ten heads.
