come off. As soon as she has finished this, she takes the | basket 
containing the gills out of the water and carries it || to the house. 
She puts it down by the side of the fire of her house. | She takes a 
kettle and pours some water into it, and | when it is half full she puts 
it over the fire. When | the water begins to boil, she takes the 
khimés (for that | is the name of the gills when they are cooked) 
out of the little basket |] and throws them into the boiling water. 
When they are all | in, she takes her fire-tongs and stirs (what is in 
the kettle). The kettle is not | kept long on the fire, perhaps for | 
half an hour or a little longer. Then it is taken off. | Now it is done 
and she invites all those who like to eat gills with her. || As soon as 
those come who are going to eat gills with spoons, she takes | the 
spoons, gives one to each of those who are going to eat with it, then | 
the woman takes the water and gives a drink to those who are going 
to eat with spoons. | After they have drunk, they eat with spoons. | 
The guests eat with spoons the liquid and the stomachs of the kelp- 
fish || and its gills. They just blow out of their mouths the bones, 
for there are bones | in the gills of the various kinds of fish. After 
they have eaten, | the woman takes water and gives it to those who 
eat with spoons with her. | Then she cools with cold water those who 
had eaten the gills with spoons, | for those who eat gill-soup perspire. ||
