TRANSLATION. 
the pile of pillows, the curtain on 
the wall, the awning over-head, 
the beat of drum, the henna dance. 
The rights of the elder and the 
officer-in-the-tribe are one. 
The record secures the tribal right, 
‘What has filtered through the: ages 
sets the example, 
The water of the pool and the cata- 
ract are one, 
- |The chapters make the script, the 
sections the chapters. 
That which floweth like a river, 
That which has its divisions like a 
rice-field, 
That which stretches straight like a 
road, 
That which has its bounds like a 
rice plot. 
| Treason : the accursed ah 
Disloyalty : deceit : 
Fire and arson : 
Murder and assassination : 
Drug and poison : 
Incest and its guilt. 
Like a bunch of sireh leaves 
‘like a cluster of coconuts, 
like a spear blade and its haft, 
like a parcel of boiled rice, 
like a mess of curried meats, 
like a rice-field and its plots.
