they looked under the _talagan_ [244] they saw
Kabkabaga-an, and Aponibolinayen went to take her hand, and they made
her dance. As soon as she finished dancing she told Aponibolinayen and
Aponitolau that she would go back home. "No, do not go yet, for we will
make _pakalon_ for Tabyayen first," said Aponibolinayen. "No, you care
for him. I must go home now, for no one watches my house." Not long
after she went, for they could not detain her, and they did not see her
when she went. As soon as the _Sayang_ was over they made _pakalon_
for Kanag and Tabyayen, and Kanag married Dapilisan, and Tabyayen
married Binaklingan, and the marriage price was the _balaua_ about
nine times full for each of them. As soon as they both were married
Tabyayen staid in his house which had been up in the air before. Kanag
staid in another house which Aponitolau and Aponibolinayen had.

"Look out for our children, Ligi, while I wash my hair," said
Ayo. "Yes," said Ligi. As soon as Ayo reached the spring Ligi went
to make a basket, in which he put the three little pigs which had
little beads around their necks. As soon as he made the basket he
put the three little pigs in it, and he climbed a tree and he hung
the basket in it. Not long after he went down and Ayo went back home
from the well. "Where are our children--the little pigs--?" [245]
said Ayo to him. As soon as Ligi said he did not know, Ayo began to
search for them, but she did not find them.

The little pigs which Ligi hung in the tree grunted, "Gek, gek, gek,"
and the old woman, Alokotan of Nagbotobotan, went to take a walk. While
she was walking she stopped under the tree where the pigs hung. She
heard them grunting and she looked up at them and saw that the basket
contained three pigs. "What man hung those little pigs in the basket
in the tree? Perhaps he does not like them. I am going to get them
and take them home, so that I will have something to feed." So she
got them. She took them home, and she named the older one Kanag,
the second one Dumalawi, the third was Ogogibeng.

Not long after the three little pigs, which had the beads about
their necks, became boys, and Ogogibeng was naughty. When the old
woman Alokotan gave them blankets, he was the first to choose the
one he wished. "Shame, Ogogibeng, why are you always the naughtiest
and are always selfish." "Yes, I always want the best, so that the
girls will want me," said Ogogibe
