P-32-BirthPurification.pdf

This short text, narrated by Durga, about the birth purification ceremony held three days after the birth of a baby began as a procedural discourse in first sentence and then switched to a descriptive exposition structure. This may have had something to do with the fact that Durga is male and he was talking about a ceremony which is only for women and children. (1972)
