The avenger did noteat anything hot, or live in a settlement, during that wicked andbarbarous vengeance.
Each year every relative punctually celebrated the obsequies, and thatwas a very festive day. They gathered a great quantity of food andbeverages; they commenced many joyful dances; they stuffed themselveswith what was prepared, taking some to their houses, and reserving thegreater portion to offer to the _divata_, and to the deceased, in thefollowing manner. A small bamboo boat was prepared..., with much care, and they filled it with fowls, flesh, eggs, fish, and rice, togetherwith the necessary dishes. The baylan gave a talk or a prolix prayer, and finished by saying: "May the dead receive that obsequy, by givinggood fortune to the living. " Those present answered with great shoutingand happiness. Then they loosed the little boat (sacred, as theythought), which no one touched, and whose contents they did not eat, even though they were perishing; for they considered that a great sin.
