"So he chopped down a number of trees, curved hem into human figures, and placed them inside them inside the jeu." ,[object Object]

"however,since the sculptures were inaimate, Fueripits was still unhappy.He then decided to create a drum, and chopped down another tree,hollowed out the center ,and stretched a piece of lizard skin over the top."

"As he began to play the drum, the human figures miraculously came to life, their knees,and they began to dance." ,[object Object]
