A young woman of the Early Race of people carried off by the Rain, in the shape of a bull

Lucy Lloyd |xam notebooks

|han≠kass'o (Klein Jantje) (VIII)

<i>A young woman of the Early Race is carried off by the Rain in the form of a bull. By /han≠kass'o (L VIII.-16. 7434-7448). </i>The Rain courted a young woman of the Early Race, because of her scent. The young woman climbs onto the Rain's back and he starts to take her away to his home (the water-pit). The young woman rubs buchu on the Rain, which makes him fall asleep and she steals away from the Rain and returns home.

1) |han≠kass'o heard this from his mother (|xabbi-an), 2) p.7434v: the rain's 'breath' resembles mist (or |<i>khumm</i>), 3) p.7435v: the rain's scent smells sweet, 4) p.7436v: the rain resembles a bull which is his body, 5) p.7441v: the 'River-bed people' call the dassie's home in the rocks a 'hole', 6) p.7442v: dry things are 'rubbed' and wet things are 'anointed', 7) This story is found in Book VIII-16
