[…] João Rouco came with three children to the eito. The woman and the boys stayed at home in the garden. In his seventies, he could take the pull, like his youngest son. His mouth was already withered, toothless, and his arms were stiff and his legs were stiff. There was no rojão for my grandfather's old caboclo. He wasn't sneaky like the others.
