Legend Of the Creation.

Among the Somalis of South Africa
there is legend that when God first
made them, a man and woman, he
wrote down in a book the law they
were to follow. They we're promised
that as long as they carefully preserv
ed this book they should continue
great and powerful. but II they lost II
their greatness would depart from
them. One day the book was careless
ly left lying outside a tent. where a
bullock found and devoured II. From
that fatal day their decadence set in;
and to the present time, whenever an
OK dies OF disease or is killed his en-.
trails are religiously examined to see
II any trace OF the book can be found
II found they believe they should re.
cover their lost power.

may be enumerated as follows: feelings OF
