Description:

Begins: Disi ma di ma ondoskon bani puwangmu garam na piso ... Dr. Voorhoeve says: 'In this somewhat obscure formula, a hunter speaks to a man called Tuwan di Ujung Karlei. He offers him salt, vinegar and betel, and asks him: "Would you first slaughter the deer, that we may slaughter it after you?" Then the hunter gives part of the venison to the spirit who has pastured the animal. The language is almost pure Simalungun'
