Pood time generally brightens people even when it only means rice and peppers. Soon after sunset all sign of life ceases. There is no light in the houses, tiecause oil is expensive, and a dying fire is enough when there is nothing to see except those you have seen all day; there are no sounds, save a baby’s cry at intervals, or perhaps tiie weird call of some night bird, lie cause people cannot talk much when no one has anything fresh to say.
