- Description
- On this occasion, the ululating of the women and the general festive air was enhanced because of the singers being freshly returned from their initiation school. "Serago, at home child of the (female) jackal. The shoe, at home, child of the jackal let us go home! Because we have died and vanished, never to return. The sound of the gun was heard in the hills and the gun that was shooting was the Europeans's." Male initiation song.
