Title
Eclipse of the sun
Collection
Summary
An account of an eclipse of the sun. It crosses over into the sky and makes the people's head-hair resemble grass. They stare at the sky and wonder at what the sun is doing to make things appear this way. They wait and watch the colours of the sky change. ||kabbo (Jantje) explains that, for that time, the sun became a halo.
