Characteristic of the fruit: the fruit is somewhat round, but not round as is the uliuliu gourd, but somewhat ovoid with the lower part flattened. That is its appearance. Its meat is inside; when you have peeled off the husk, and broken the shell, then you come to the meat. It is as white as the snow on the mountain. Inside of the meat is a pool of water. It [the coconut] has three eyes,67 two of which are blind, and one through which the water comes out.
