Ndokupisa kwaakaita zvisote zvekoroni nembesanwa dzakanga dzakamira muminda, pamwechete neminda yemagirepisi neyemiorivhi. VaFirisitia vakabvunzana vachiti, “Ndianiko aita izvi?” Zvikanzi, “NdiSamusoni, mukuwasha womuTimuna uya nokuti vatezvara vake vakatora mukadzi wake vakamupa kune mumwe aiva muperekedzi wake.” VaFirisitia vakaendako, vakapisa nomoto mukadzi iyeyo nababa wake.
