13. This is the mantra we use when about to drive the 

 herd either into the large or the smaller enclosure. We repeat 

 it over the kunyit trus which we then sprinkle in the direction 

 taken by the herd j and then with our months we blow in the 

 direction of the gate of the enclosure. 



Om kundang ding kundang sai talaung teguling 

 di pantai rambut tegulong di hadapan ku tiba 

 kanan tibalun kiri ku sikab piah nitik mu hei chang. 



Aku tahu asal mil menjadi, 

 Deripada markubulikam mulia. 

 Kail turut kata ku, 

 Jikalau kau tdtuvut kata ku, 

 Matt di bunoh Sri Rami. 

 Jikalau kau turut kata ku, 

 Di hidopi maha Rishi. 

 Kaluh! Kaluh! Kaluh ! 



[I know whence you had your creation. It was from Mar- 

 kubulikam the noble. Do you obey my words. If you do not 

 obey, you will be killed by Sri Rama ; if you obey, you will be 

 kept alive by the Maha Rishi. 



Kaluh! Kaluh! Kaluh!] 



14. This is a perabun charm for elephants, and we repeat 

 it whenever we enter the great forest or any virgin forest that 

 has never been trodden by man. It is an invocation to drive 

 the forest spirits aWay from the elephants.
