So Pagatipánan said to Pagbokásan, "Now that the pakálon is over we will take Aponibolinayen, because Lingiwan wants her now." Pagbokásan said, "Do not take her now. You come and bring Lingiwan day after tomorrow." "If that is what you say we will bring him, if you will not let us take Aponibolinayen now."
"If you do not wish to come and eat with us, we do not want Dangdangáyan to be married to Aponigawani," they said. Then they all went to eat. After they ate, "Ala now that we have finished eating you excuse us, for we want to know if you wish Dangdangáyan to be married to Aponigawani." Langa-an and Pagatipánan said, "You will come next month, we will make pakálon."
So they went home and Dangdangáyan went to meet them at the gate of the town, and he asked at once, "Father and mother did they accept me?" He said, "Yes, if we can agree on what they want us to pay, and we have to go there next month." So Dangdangáyan was glad and told the people about it, and he invited them to go the next month to make pakálon.
As soon as the pakálon was finished the people all went home, and Pagbokásan and Ebang said, "Ala, now that the pakálon is over let us take Aponigawani," Langa-an answered, "If you make extra payment you can take Aponigawani now," and Dangdangáyan said to his mother, "If they want the extra payment, ask them how much."
As soon as they arrived in Pindayan he divorced Gimbagonan, and he went to marry Aponibolinayen. So truly he married Gamayawán. As soon as the pakálon was over, he paid the marriage price. Next evening Iwaginan and Aponibolinayen lived together. Next morning they went to wash their hair. "Wait for me here for I am going to dive in the river," said Iwaginan.
When the things arrived in Kaodanan the people were frightened for there were the valuable things which Dangdangáyan took with him. After one month passed Lingiwan said to his father Pagatipánan, "You go and make pakálon for Aponibolinayen for I want to marry her." So his father sent his wife Langa-an to Kaodanan to tell to the father and mother of Aponibolinayen that Lingiwan wished to marry her.
As soon as the agreed month to go to Kadalayanpan came, they went. As soon as they arrived there they danced for one month. Lingiwan and Aponibolinayen had their golden house, which the alan had given them. The people agreed on how much they should pay for the pakálon, and Pagatipánan and Langa-an said, "Pay just the same as we paid for Aponibolinayen when Lingiwan married her."
Thus in the story of the magic poncho , which is evidently of Spanish introduction, the owner is identified as the banbantay a well-known minor spirit. Again, the first part of tale 85 is identical with that of the Ilocano, but ends with the parents of the groom preparing the things used in the pakálon a very necessary part of the Tinguian marriage ceremony.
When the pakálon was over, Alokotán used magic and she said, "I use my power so that they will not know that they are transferred to Kadalayapan," and all the houses went to Kadalayapan. Not long after the people who went to attend the pakálon found that they were in Kadalayapan and they were surprised, and the people from the other towns went home when the pakálon was finished.
When the day for pakálon came they summoned all the people, and so they went, and some of them went first. "You, my jar, bilibili, and my jar ginlasan, and you my jar malayo, go first." So all the jars preceded them, and they followed. Not long after they arrived. When all the people whom they invited arrived, they fed them all.
