The lion has walked;
Hide antelopes,
Get out of his way.'(Niane. The Lion's Awakening)

"They threw over the anchor stones and made fast the stern cables
and themselves stepped out on to the break of the sea beach,
and led forth the hecatomb of the archer Apollo,
and Chryseis herself stepped forth from the sea-going vessel. (Lattimore, from Iliad)"

"The story of Sundiata has been passed down orally by men know as griots. Griots can described as poets, historians, singers, story-tellers, and public relations men rolled into one." (WM 443)
