o carry him to Kadalayapan and give him to his father,"
said the _alan_. "That is good, I think; we will go and take him to
Kadalayapan tomorrow." When it became early morning she truly prepared
cakes to use as food for the boy on the way. When it became day they
started. As soon as they arrived at the spring of Kadalayapan she
used her power so that all the people in the town and all who were
dipping water at the well went to sleep; so all the people who were
pounding rice and working slept truly. Not long after they went up
to the town. When they were approaching the _balaua_ of Ligi they
saw him there asleep. As soon as they reached the _balaua_ they put
the boy beside the man who was sleeping. "Stay here and wait, do
not fall down," they said to him. "Yes, mother," said the boy. They
advised him not to tell who was his mother or where he came from,
and they went home. As soon as they reached the edge of the town,
she used her power again and all the people who were asleep woke up.

Ligi was surprised when he saw the boy beside him when he woke up. "Why
here is a boy by me, with my _balangat_ which I lost when I went to
take a bath," said Ligi, and he asked where the boy came from and the
name of his mother and how he came. "Who are you talking to," said his
mother Langa-an. "'Who are you talking to,' you say mother, here is a
boy with my _balangat_," said Ligi. Langa-an was in a hurry and she
went down from the house and she went down two rounds of the ladder
at one step. As soon as she got down she took the boy to their house,
where she was cooking and they asked him many questions. "My mother
is an _alan_" said Galinginayen. "What is your name then?" "My name
is Galinginayen who is the son of an _alan_ of Kabinbinlan," [275]
said the boy. "No you are not the son of an _alan_," they said. When
Langa-an finished cooking they tried to feed him, but he would not
eat. "If you eat my cake I will eat with you," said the boy. So they
ate truly of the boy's provisions and he ate also with them.

When it became afternoon Gamayawan went to get the boy. As soon as
she arrived at the edge of the town of Kadalayapan she used her power
again and all the people who were working and dipping water slept. She
went to the town and Ligi slept again, and she took the boy. As soon
as she reached the edge of the town she used her power again and all
the people who slept woke up. As soon as Ligi woke up he saw that
the boy was not by him
