Description: There appears to be some connection in this song with the matrilineal outlook of the Tonga people, who inherit through the more certain distaff side. The fact that the child made this remark might indicate that truth may be spoken "out of the mouth of babes", regarding legitimacy. Mendicant's song with leg rattles.
