- text: "We shall later see that one of the most frequently performed of Tio Sin-se*'s rites, “Releasing constrictions-dissipating disasters” ( siau-chai kai-eh ), explicitly presupposes just these ideas. Its name alone suffices to indicate the connection. Afflictions by ghosts, moreover, are commonly spoken of as binding up ( tien ) or constricting their victims. The word translated here as “binding up” is also used to refer to the old Chinese custom of foot-binding, from which its sense can easi be inferred."

- text: "The portents for Jugah's life were apparent in the first year of his life. At a time when one in two Iban infants died during the first year of life, Jugah was a vigorous, alert, and responsive infant. His family situation was a healthful one in which he thrived. Further, in contrast to many other Iban children who were sickly and went through a ritual change of names ( misab ka penama ) in an effort by their parents to improve their health, Jugah retained the name he was first given throughout his life."
