- Description: Baryaningwe, son of Ntwali. "I, professional thief, I went to a place called Ruagi and stole a cow, but the owner saw me just as I was driving it out. So I was caught. I was taken into a hut and tied up. In my misery, I was asked for an Inanga zither and began to sing. I sang so well that the women and children begged for my release. I was freed but I did not know that my fellow-thieves had gone to tell my family what had happened. So whilst I was singing to all these people my relatives came to my help and my enemies spell-bound by my singing were taken unawares and thus I escaped. Legend. Recitative to instrumental accompaniment with Inanga trough zither.
