- Long ago when the poor people who were living on the side of the mountain had no milk God sent a cow around to give them milk and whoever saw her could milk her no matter how many times a day. If you milked her into an egg-cup she would fill it and no more, and if you milked her into the largest vessel you had she would also fill it.
There is a little insect of a red shining colour around this district knows as God's little cow.- Collector
