He loved Stella Perita, his dear wife, taller than he did, From across River Nzoia, the daughter of Lubonga The great fisherman and infamed hunter of his time That used to **** the leopard with his bare hands. The ears of Lubongaβs brothers and clansmen were keen for his fate, as he relinquished Perita His tallest daughter to Kitui wa Khayongo. Kitui loved his wife Perita without reservation; He did everything for her, from washing everything to being blind to each and every of her faults, He forgave her ceaselessly all the adulterous acts, She gave birth to ******* and *******, but he gave no ****. He washed her every time of the week she took a bath, He toweled her dry after each bathe, and avoided *** with her Lest he makes her ***** with his peasantβs sweat and *****, He economized his eating greatly, so that he creates a reserve for her When the starvation comes in the month of May, when food is scanty, She ate and ate until she developed cancer of over- eating, And when she died Kitui moaned and mourned, Like a croaking bull frog in the swamps during the winter, for two years, He grieved such long as his brothers and neighbours skulked in a giggle.
