Summary

<i>... a cunning woman of this </i>

Comments

1) Lloyd took down this story twice as she did not understand it properly the first time she took it down (see p.4042v); the two versions are included together here, 2) p.4033v: the location of the old woman's house in the pan; the story was told to !kweiten ta ||ken by her mother (≠kamme-an); Dia!kwain says that |kua is short for |kwammana, 3) p.4036v: |kua's things come of their own accord when he summons them, 4) This story is found in Book VI-2
