- Description
- A certain man had gone to another district to get married. While he was still there his wife had a child. He decided to return to his own country, but on the way they found it difficult to carry the child. They killed him and put him in a basket. The blood of the child turned into a bird. It flew off and perched on a tall grass and started singing, "You man and woman, you are evil, you have killed a child! Hear the child crying for milk." Story (Nthano).
