The next night, too, while yae and Yakumo were playing on the flute and koto, the young man appeared again. |
Yae is Yae chow, a town of Hainan, southerly from the capital of the island 1,114 le. |
They thocht the ill auld boy was comed into the midst o' them, an' wi' yae consent they made for the door. |
Lod, Lod, three cradles a' rockin' at the same time in yae hoose, it will be like a smiddyor a watchmaker's shop! |
They waste mair in yae day, whiles, than wad keep your family or mine for a whole year. |
