Asbinan said, "Yes," and he went to his grandmother Alokotán. "Ala, my grandmother Alokotán, what shall we do? Dawinisan said that if we have everything they want and will pay it for her, she will marry me." The old woman said, "Ala, do not worry about that, I will see."
Continuing his journey, he is twice lost. Finds an unknown sister hiding among lawed vines. Puts her in his belt and carries her home. Upon his arrival a celebration is held and the new found brothers and sister, who had been stolen by alan, are restored to parents. The mother and caretaker of Asbinan try to arrange for him to marry Dawinisan, but are refused.
When they had finished eating, "Father Ligi give me your love charm which you used when you were young, for I wish to go to the place where the maidens spin at night." "Good evening, young girls," said Asbinan. "I do not like to light my tobacco unless the fire is taken from the light of your pipes."
When she saw that the boy appeared to be suffering greatly she went into the house; she changed her dress and went out on the porch, and she looked like the sunshine. When she reached the porch, she rubbed the boy's stomach, and directly Asbinan sat up. Dawinisan said to him, "Come into the house and we will tell our names and see if we are relatives."
"Mother pretty Ayo I do not wish to eat when we have no fish roe." After that Ligi went to his friends who use the big fish net in the ocean. "Ala, my friends, search fish roe, for my son Asbinan wishes to eat." They went to examine the bellies of nine baskets of fish, but there was no roe. He went to his friends who fish in the river. "Ala, friends secure fish roe which my son wishes to eat."
So they went into the house and she told him to set down on a golden seat which looked like a fawn. As soon as he sat down he said, "Pretty, young girl, when I see you I am blinded by your beauty. I came here because I wish to marry you." "Oh, Asbinan! I am ashamed, but I do not want to be married yet," said Dawinisan.
She vomited and her eyes were filled with tears, and after that they went home, all those who spun together. They went to get Asbinan who was sleeping, and he stepped on their heels as they walked. "Ala, aunt, I cannot cure her unless we are married." Then they decided on the day for pakálon, and the price was the lower part of the house filled nine times with jars, which are malayo and tadogan.
As soon as she arrived at the stairs of the house of the mother and father of Dawinisan, they said, "Good morning," and the mother of Dawinisan said, "Good morning, what did you come here for, Ayo and Alokotán of Kadalayapan?" "'What did you come here for? you say. Our son Asbinan wants to marry Dawinisan," said Ayo. She called them up into the house and they talked.
The next day they oiled the gansas and the people played them and all the people who heard them danced for they liked the sound of them very much. So Asbinan went to attend the balaua. All the people arrived at the place by the spring and a big storm came and wet all of them.
He said, "If Dawinisan does not want to look at me from the window, and if I die it is her fault, for I came here because of her." The alan who saw that Asbinan was a beautiful young boy, said, "If you will not go to look at him, we are going to leave you, for we fear that he is going to die because of you."
