okotan to them. Awig and Aponibolinayen
did not answer for they were ashamed. When the old woman had finished
to talk to them she put saliva around the cut on Linongan and caused
it to join. When she finished joining it, "I use my power so that when
I snap my perfume [286] which is called _dagimonau_ ('to wake up')
she will wake up at once." When she snapped her perfume Linongan woke
up at once. "I use my power so that when I use my perfume _alikadakad_
(sound of walking or moving) she will at once make a movement." When
she snapped her perfume Linongan moved at once. "I use my power so
when I snap my perfume _banawes_ she will blow out her breath!" When
she snapped her perfume, she at once breathed a long breath. "_Wes_
how terrible my sleep was," said Linongan. "'How terrible my sleep' you

Not long after Awig went to take four small branches of the tree

knees." So the betel-nuts went.

Not long after the people whom they invited came to the place where
they made _balaua_ and they all danced. The companion of Ilwisan of
Dagapan in dancing was Alama-an. When Ilwisan stamped his feet the
earth rumbled. When he looked up at Alama-an he said, "How terrible is
the love of the ladies toward me; she thinks that I love her," but he
wished to dance with Linongan. When they finished dancing, Asigtanan
and Dondonyan of Bagtalan danced next. When Dondonyan shook his foot
the world smiled and it rained softly. When they finished dancing,
Iwaginan and Linongan, who never goes outdoors, danced. When Iwaginan
stamped his feet, all the coconuts in the trees fell, and when Linongan
moved her toes in dancing all the
