M. Goussin adds the further translation: "Toaroa, the Great Orderer, is the origin of the earth: he has no father, no posterity." The tradition of the Odshis, a negro tribe on the African Gold Coast, represents the creation as having been completed in six days. God created first the woman; then the man; then the animals; then the trees and plants; and lastly the rocks.
Thus: "'Twas the morning of time When yet naught was, Nor sand nor sea was there, Nor cooling streams. Earth was not formed Nor heaven above. A yawning gap was there And grass nowhere." Not unlike these conceptions of the "Beginning" is that which Morenhout found in a song of the Tahitans, and which ran thus: "He was; Toaroa was his name, He existed in space; no earth, no heaven, no men."
