On
south of the Sahara in the outer loop of the river Niger,
there is a country of bush and hills ; the senufo land.
In
the bush or in the Holly Wood, in the water of the White
Bandama or in the villages of the men, the spirits live.
The
spirits eat, sleep, have children, make war and dominate
the men.

secrets of the spirits. And the word made possible to transmit
it to the others men.
The
Poro give the word to the initate, and the artiste
guive it to the world.
It
still necessary to know to read it.
