The long fruits of the Mnnga 
thin pods, are likened to the 
iron of a spinning wheel, hold¬ 
ing the wool. 
In a ruinous house are small evil 
spirits dancing ? 
Maize flour. 
The Indian corn is roasted in a 
broken earthen-pot, filled with 
sand; when hot, the corns are 
jumping hither and thither. 
The evil spirits surround the 
men everywhere according to 
the belief of the Mundaris. 
Go on, boys, I will curl serpent¬ 
like P 
The splitting of the Lama-creeper. 
In the month of Aghan (Hovera- 
ber-December) the fruit of the 
Lama-creeper splits asunder, by 
and by the fruit dries up and 
the seed is curling like a ser¬ 
pent. 
The fat cow roams, the cow with 
the head bent down rushes in ? 
Fruit of the Janum (thorn) 
tree. 
The tempting round fruit in¬ 
vites, but the man who breaks 
the fruit will be pierced by the 
thorn. 
On the round fruit is hair and 
it pricks with a thorn. 
I am covered with small hairs, 
piercing with a hook. 
Fruit of the thorn-tree. 
The king’s and queen’s baskets 
you cannot open ? 
The fruit of the Hatna tree. 
It is impossible to opeu the fruit, 
without an instrument.
