Everyone was very sad at the demise of the grandmother. She was lifted off the bed and, as is customary, laid on the
ground and covered with a red shroud. After a few hours of mourning the family
left her alone to make arrangements for her funeral. In the evening, all over
the verandah and in her room right up to where she lay dead and stiff wrapped
in the red shroud, thousands of sparrows sat scattered on the floor. There was
no chirruping. Everyone felt sorry for the birds and the author’s mother fetched
some bread for them. She broke it into little crumbs, the way his grandmother used to, and threw it to them. The
sparrows took no notice of the bread. When they carried the grandmother’s
corpse off, they flew away quietly.
