While a certain Master and Servant were going on a journey, they
having become hungry the Master said, "Ada! Bring plantain flowers,"
[146] and gave money to the Servant.
The Servant having brought plantain flowers, for the purpose of eating
them they sat down at a place. The Master spoke to the Servant,
"Ada! Don't throw away their rinds (potu); having given money also
[for them] what are you throwing them away for?" he said.
"If so, you must eat them," the Servant said.
Thereupon, while the Master first was eating the peel (leli) of the
plantain fruits, his stomach having filled he became unable to eat
the core [of the peeled fruit].
After that, the Servant ate the small quantity of the core.
