The girl said, "Father, I am frying our lineage, [the only thing
we possess]."
After that, anger having come to the man, he got up, and came to
his village. Having come there, on the following day, he went to the
place where the other daughter is.
When he went there, the daughter, having cooked the sweetmeats called
Wellawaehun for the father, gave him to eat. He had not eaten them
since he was born.
That day, having eaten, when he was coming to his village saying and
saying, "Wellawaehun, Wellawaehun," in order not to forget the name
of them, his foot struck a stone that was on the path.
Then the man was caused to exclaim "Hobbancodi" [44]; "Wellawaehun"
was forgotten. From there until the time when he comes to his village,
having come saying and saying "Hobbancodi, Hobbancodi," he says to
his wife, "Bolan, to-day in our girl's quarter I ate Hobbancodi. The
taste is very good; you cook them, too."
Thereupon the woman says, "Ane! I have not even heard of them since
I was born, so how shall I cook them?"
Then the man, saying and saying, "What, Bola! Strumpet! Do you say
you don't know? I ate them now, and came."
While the two old people are quarrelling about this, men of the
village having come, a man said, "She indeed is doing all this,
bringing her mouth like a Wellawaehun roll."
"There! I [meant to] say those indeed," the man said.
After that, they two, having joined together, cooked five Wellawaehun
rolls. Thereupon the man said, "There are three for me, two for
you." The woman, too, said, "There are three for me, two for you." They
two being unable to divide these, made an agreement, that is, "Let
us two remain without speaking. For the person who speaks first there
are two," they agreed.
Being satisfied with it, having shut the door, they lay down. While
they are lying down thus, perceiving that there was not any sound
of them, the men of the village came, and having spoken to the
door, finding that there was no sound they said, "These will have
died." Having split open the door and gone into the house, at the
time when they looked they remained as though dead.
After that, in order to carry them to bury, men tied their hands and
feet. The man, while they are tying his feet, having got hurt, said,
"Uwah."
