Lucy Lloyd |xam notebooks

Dia!kwain (David Hoesar) (V)

<i>The Lion. Power over the time of sunset, and over the water-skins of the Bushmen, possessed by him. Flies tell him that a Bushman intends to fetch water, to-day. Caution in fetching water is recommended. In the Katkop dialect, by Díä!kwãin (L V.-11. 4869 rev.-4879 rev.).</i> Dia!kwain's mother tells of lions and their doings when they want to catch and eat people. They make the sun set quickly to catch people out in the veld away from home and they make the waterskin tear .
