After the elder sister’s girl had gone home, she told the elder sister of it: “Mother, there is a White Turtle in the river. When that girl goes it comes to her; when I go it swims far away,” she said.
That elder sister said, “Hā. It is good. I shall eat it,” and lay down.
The younger sister’s girl hearing it, went near the river, and said, “Mother, she must eat you, says Loku-Ammā.”
Then the White Turtle said, “Hā. It is good, daughter. Let her eat. After she has cooked she will give you, also, a little gravy, and a bone. Drink the gravy, and take the bone to the cattle-fold, and having said, ‘If it be true that you are our mother, may you be created a Mango tree,’ throw it down.”
Afterwards, when those two men came home, having seen that the woman was lying down, “What are you lying down for?” they asked.
Then the woman said, “It is in my mind to eat the White Turtle that is in the river.” So the men went to the river, and having caught the White Turtle, and brought it home, and cooked it, gave it to the woman. Then the woman got up and ate it.
She gave the girl a little gravy, and a bone. The girl having drunk the gravy, took the bone to the cattle-fold, and saying, “If it be true that you are our mother, may you be created a Mango tree,” threw down the bone.
After that, a Mango tree being created, in a day or two grew large and bore fruit. As the two girls were going near the Mango tree they saw that there were Mangoes on it, and went close to it. When the elder sister’s girl went to pluck the Mango fruits, the branches rose up; when the younger sister’s girl went to pluck them, the branches bent down, and spread over her body and head. Well then, after that girl had plucked and eaten as many as she wanted, the branches rose again.
That also the elder sister’s girl, having come home, told her: “Mother, there are fruits on the Mango tree at the cattle-fold. When I try to pluck them the branches rise; when that girl tries to pluck them the branches rub the ground.”
The woman said, “Hā. It is good. I will split that and warm it in the fire.”
