Note 75 — 5

When they reached the orange tree Aponībolinayen heard him when he stuck his spear in the ground and she looked down and saw a handsome Page 62man. “Good morning, lady,” he said. “Good morning,” answered Aponībolinayen. Not long after they chewed betel-nut and they told their names. “My name is Kadayadawan of Pintagayan who is the son of an alan.”75 “My name is Aponībolinayen of Natpangan, who is the daughter of Pagbokásan and Ebang, who is the sister of Aponībalagen.” Their betel-nut quids became agate beads and Kadayadawan said to her, “Ala, it is good for us to marry. I am going to take you home.” So he took her to his home and he was good to his carabao, because it had found him a pretty woman. When they reached the house he put her in a room, and the Ati76 commanded the soldiers to call Kadayadawan. When they reached the yard of Kadayadawan's house they called “Good morning.” And he looked out of the window and said, “What do you want?” “We came, because the king wants you and we came to get you.” So they started and went. When they arrived where the king was, “Why Kadayadawan have you a pretty girl in your house? Every night I notice that your house appears as if it were burning.” “No, I have not,” answered Kadayadawan. “I think you have, for I notice the flames every night.” “No, I have not. Where would I find a pretty woman?”77
