“At the east where the black water lies, stands the large corn,
with staying roots, its large stalk, its red silk, its long
leaves, its tassel dark and spreading, on which there is the dew.
“At the sunset where the yellow water lies, stands the large
pumpkin with its tendrils, its long stem, its wide leaves, its
yellow top on which there is pollen.”
