"Eh, no money, no money,
In his pocket no money;
Unminding his blindness,
That fool man tries to own me."
"I'll tell you don't madden me,
Or I'll cut your willow-tree;
If you marry some one else,
I'll surely leave this country."
"Water pail in hand has she,
Walks to the fount slowly;
Girl, your sweetheart is coming,
Run back homeward, make hurry."
"Moon rises leaping, leaping,
Through the branches peeping;
I have got sad news to-day,
My love for me is weeping"
"My daughter, pearly, pearly,
Soon grow be a lady;
I'll marry you a gypsy,
Play your gong, be happy."
5. Miscellaneous Customs Among the Turkish People.—Medication. They do not use many medicines, and those which are used are such things as the blood of a black hen, the skin of a black cat, certain animals' manure, roasted snake, the mixture of seven flowers from seven fields, the milk of a woman who nurses a girl baby, the fat of the bear, the milk of a bird, the rain-water that falls in the month of April, and other things that cannot be found easily, if at all. They believe in supernatural power of relics, reading from Koran, touch of a dervish, favorable words of an idiot, the tombs of certain saints, waters by a witch, or rags tied to certain bushes.
