Title
The Lion star
Collection
Summary
The (two) Lions, which was the name given to us (by our first informants) for the Pointers to the Southern Cross, were formerly men, and at the same time lions. (LII.-1. 277 and 278) One of them became a star, because a girl looked at him; and the other lion also became a star. They now stand silent, not far from the lionesses, who sit silent. (L II.-1. 237-240).
