for I do not want to be married to him for he has three noses." "No,
Gawigawen is a handsome man. I often see him, for this is where he
comes often to snare chickens. Do not believe what Indiápan said to
you, for she is crazy," said the rooster. Not long after she walked

pretty girl in the orange tree and he said, "How pretty she is!" And
the carabao said, "That is the toy I told you about."

When they reached the orange tree Aponibolinayen heard him when
