- Description
- "Oh, Mother, what greed! The husband with many wives, what greed! He says, close the door, Go to your elder sister. I have resented it, Mama, aye. That is him. The husband likes to eat by himself without his wives or family whom he sends off to eat with others while he feeds alone greedily. Pounding song with pestle and mortar.
