I did not need the services of the clinic sister again until my second visit to Bali. This time I stepped on some wet moss and catapulted spectacularly down the last half dozen steps leading to the swimming po~I, managing to damage three ribs and cut open my head in the limited time at my disposal.

(Happy to say, there was only minimal damage to the stepis:)

The scream with which I accompanied these acrobatics brought the hotel's full complement of houseboys running to the rescue - followed closely by two water carriers and the lamplighter.

When the clinic sister arrived, she cut away large chunks of blood caked hair, applied a dressing and carefully combed the remaining hair to disguise the repair work. The bruised ribs were gently massaged with a mixture of coconut oil and finely chopped onion.

All told, I looked like a bandit and smelt like French salad.

Next day sister re-dressed my head while -the assistant manager, bending low over the bed, puffed furiously into the open cut, only taking time off occasionally to inquire if the blowing made the wound cooler.

in Bali we must point out a very important distinction which the Balinese make between two clearly separate groups of ancestors. The first of these groups consists of the dead who are riot yet completely purified. This group is in turn subdivided in pirata, those riot yet cremated, and pitara, those already cremated. The former are still completely impure; the latter have been purified, but are still considered as distinct, individual souls. The second group consists of the completely purified ancestors who are considered as divine.
No contact is sought with the pirata, the dead who have not yet been cremated. Oil the contrary they are dangerous, Offerings must however be made for the redemption of their souls.
