Note 176 — 18

When the day for pakálon came they summoned all the people, and so they went, and some of them went first. “You, my jar, bilībilī, and my jar ginlasan, and you my jar malayo, go first.” So all the jars preceded them, and they followed. Not long after they arrived. When all the people whom they invited arrived, they fed them all. When they had all finished eating, “Now that we have finished eating we are going to settle on the price. My balaua must be filled eighteen times with different jars before Kanag and Daliknáyan can be married.” So they filled the balaua eighteen times. “Now that the pakálon is finished and we have paid the price, we will take her home, and you prepare the food for her to take.” So they started to fix a box for her with pillows, and they gave her a golden hat which looked like a bird, and she put her skirt on her head and it twinkled. Not long after they went. As soon as they arrived in Kadalayapan, they went upstairs, and they made her sit on the bamboo floor, and they counted the bamboo strips on which she sat, and it was an arm span long of agate beads.176 Not long after they had a son and they named him Dumalawig. This is all.
