The Tale Of Spider's Sister

Spider’s Sister was a fine worker in wool. 
One day she went out to her loom under the shady Acacia tree. 
But all was not well. Yarn balls were tossed all about on the ground. 
Red, White, Black wool was tangled all together. 
Her fine blanket was undone. 
For the trickies had been there overnight. 
But Spider’s Sister knew what to do. 
She made a plan. She went to the potter woman. 
She said make me a good strong pot with a good heavy lid and it must have a good spider design on it. 
Three days later the pot was done, and it was very handsome. 

That night Spider’s Sister stole out to her loom in the moonlight. 
She saw them there, preparing to gnaw the very warp on her loom! 
Sorrow. 
Despair. 
Fear. 
Death. 
Quick as a jumping spider she grabbed each trickie and she flung it into her fine big pot and slammed on the lid very very tightly! 
Spider’s Sister took the jug down to the river and buried it under rocks. 
That morning she went back to her loom and made all things right. 
Her blanket was even more beautiful than before. 
Red, White and Black. 

That night Spider’s Sister made a fine stew of mutton and corn and chilis for her people. 
She smiled to herself. 
She laughed for her heart was very light.
