To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
:f;Kha, to refuse ; :j:khaba, stubborn, wiclced ; :j:Ma- lasih, wickedness, badness. Why missionaries have com- mitted the absurdity of forming from a Hebrew root tlie word elo-^oresa — i.e., being witliout ^lohim — is to me a riddle, when we have a very pregnant Khoikhoi word to express wicked and wickedness. Tsa, to feel ; ts&b, the feeling, taste, sentiment ; tsa\kJw, to feel with — i.e., to condole ; tsa-lkhasib, condolence (German Mitgefuhl). \Ami,, clean, neat ; but anu, sacred, pure, ref...ined, hand- some, beautiful ; also anuya ; anusib, holiness, sacredness, purity. To show what the Khoikhoi mean by ami, and amoy^a, I may give the following conversation I once had with an old Namaqua. A girl, a niece of his, used to bring daily some milk to my camp. Her lov6ly face and the pure expression of the eyes had struck me repeatedly, and I could not help being complimentary to the old man. It was indeed one of those faces " Which tell of days in goodness spent, '' A mind in peace with all below, A heart whose love is innocent." I used in my conversation the word isa (beautiful), when the old man almost indignantly said, " No, every girl can be Isa, but such an appearance as hers we call anu-^a (full of pttrity)." This was amongst Khoikhoi who had no missionary yet, and who still lived in national primi- tive indejDendence.
