irst covered with _lawed_ [133] leaves. As
soon as he had fed them he gave them some salt. Not long after he
went back home and he rode on a carabao.

When he arrived at their house he called to Aponibolinayen, but no one
answered him and he was surprised. So he hurried to the house and he
saw that Aponibolinayen was dead and he was grieved. He took her in his
lap and while her body was in his lap it began to sweat. He used his
power so that when he whipped [134] his perfume _banawes_ she said,
"_Wes_." When he whipped his perfume _dagimonau_ she awoke. When he
whipped his perfume _alikadakad_ she stood up and said, "I told you not
to go, Aponitolau, but you went anyway. A big woman came here and stole
all my things and killed me. I don't know who she was." Aponitolau
called his mother and asked who it was and his mother replied that
it was Gimbangonan. So Aponitolau went to Natpangan. "Why did you go
to kill Aponibolinayen?" "I went to kill her for you do not care for
me any more." "I do not like you, for you are a very big woman. Every
time you step the floor is broken. If you come again to Kadalayapan I
will cut your head off. Do not come again to harm Aponibolinayen." He
went home to Kadalayapan and he divorced Gimbangonan.

Not long after they went to the pasture and they rode on the back of a
carabao. As soon as they arrived, all the jars rolled around them and
stuck out their tongues and Aponibolinayen was afraid, for she feared
the jars would eat them. The wide field was full of jars. Aponitolau
gave them betel-nut and _lawed_ vine and salt. As soon as they fed them
they went back home. Not long after Aponibolinayen said to Aponitolau,
"We are going to Natpangan to visit my father and mother," so they
went. As soon as they arrived there Aponibolinayen told her father and
mother that Aponitolau had a pasture filled with many different kinds
of jars, in the place of Kabinalan. When they had been in Natpangan
ten days they returned home and Aponibolinayen's father and mother
went with them and saw the jars. When they reached the field where
the jars were they were afraid that the jars would eat them, but
Aponitolau fed them. The father and mother of Aponibolinayen were
surprised for there were many valuable jars which filled the wide
field of Kabinalan. Not long after they went back home to Natpangan.
