To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The egg he eats. After this he seeks the * Eliot in " Asiatic Researches, " vol. Iv. 138 RAJMAHALI MOUNTAINEERS, solitude of the wood or stream ; and is fed by the deity. Sometimes he has ridden a snake ; some times put his hands in the mouth of a tiger with impunity. Trees too large to move, or too thorny to touch, he places on the roofs of houses. He sees Bedo Gosaik in visions ; and, in the sacrifices therein enjoined, red paint, rice, and pigeons make a part. From the touch of women he abst...ains; so he does from the taste of flesh. Either would make his prophecies false. There are also certain sacrifices that the Maungy (chief ?) of each village makes, and in which threads of red silk play a part. One of their gods an elemental one is the god of rain, and the dangers of a drought are averted by praying to him. A ceremony called the Satane determines the chief who takes the office of invoker. A black stone, called Ruxy, is much of the same sort of fetish with these mountaineers as the Sij with the Bodo.
