Kwa bokhutlong, ka Maesemane a keteka, "Blackham o ne a tsamaya a tlhatloga le go fologa mo mathuding jaaka nkwe e e tsenngwang mo serubing, a ngunanguna a re 'Lesego le le setlhogo – lesego le le setlhogo'.... Ka bokhutshwane, setlhopha se ne sa kgaoganngwa thata se bona phenyo e phamolwa jalo.... 'Pula e ne ya re itaya,' ga rialo bangwe ba bone."
