- Description
- During the dry season and particulary before the summer rains begin in October to December, green food is scarce in the valley, and the domestic animals yearn for it, especially the goats. The entertainer no doubt likens himself to the goat straining for the tastely green food. Mendicant's song with sounds of stick in the background.
