2) Ni-Lit, sung by children [in this instance] from Big Nambas, each verse by solo voice, chorus in unison, includes whistling.
Note: According to Clausen's informants at Brenway [Branwei], Big Nambas women's teeth are knocked out, after marriage but before children are born. It 'opens the road' to them, and is like boys' initiation. Ni-Lit is danced by the community concerned during the 30 days' seclusion, two or three times.
