he ten heads
were cut off. "You, my spear and headaxe, go and kill all the people
in the houses of the town, who live with Giambolan," they said. The
spears and headaxes went and killed all the people in the town, and
the pig troughs were floating in blood toward the river. "You, heads,
gather together in the yard of Giambolan. You, heads of the women,
separate, and you, heads of Giambolan, go first, and you, storm,
carry the house of Giambolan. You go near to our house in Dagapan."
"I will tramp on the town of Giambolan so it will be like the ocean,"
they said. Not long after the town was like the ocean. They went home
and they followed after the heads, which they sent first to their
town. Not long after, "I use my power so that we arrive at once in
Dagapan," said Ilwisan. So they arrived truly.
"All the heads of Giambolan stay by the gate of the town; all the
heads of the people who live with him stay around the town."
"You _alan_ who look like me, we will go and see Ilwisan and make
him go into the house, for he has returned from fighting." Not long
after they made him climb the _sangap_ [256] so he could talk with the

When the spirit messengers arrived by the _balaua_ where Aponitolau
of Kadalayapan was lying down, "Good morning," they said. "How are
you," said Aponitolau. "I came here because Ilwisan of Dagapan sent
me to get you, for they make a big party, for they have returned
from fighting." "This is the first time I have heard of a town called

and we all will go to Dagapan, because Ilwisan will make a big party,
for he has returned from fighting; all you ladies who stay in the
house come also."
Not long after they went and Aponitolau guided them, and they met the
people who live in Natpangan and Pindayan in the way. Gimbagonan, who
was the wife of Iwaginan, and Danay of Kabisilan went to Dagapan. When
