Abstract
German
German
Ein jüngerer Helfer aus Bisha-ashi-teri bläst mit einem Blasrohr mehrmals Yópo-Schnupfpulver in beide Nasenlöcher eines älteren Zauberarztes, der sich aus der Hocke erhebt, mit Hohlkreuz und langsam tänzelndem Schritt auf und ab trippelt und dabei die Arme rhythmisch schlenkert. Er ahmt verschiedene Tiergeister nach, die er gleichzeitig in Gesängen anruft.

After a young man has blown with a tube pinches of yópo powder into his nose, an elderly man rises from his cowering position and performs, under the influence of the drug, dancing steps in front of the hut, accompanied with different gestures of his arms. He imitates different animal spirits which he invokes at the same time in special songs.
