Odu Irosun-Oshe

Orinmila says: "It goes better";
I say: "It goes better";
he says: "It goes better for the yam that grows".
He says: "It goes better";
I say: "It goes better";
he says: "It goes better for the corn that grows cobs".
Orunmila says: "It goes better";
I say: "It goes better";
he says: "It goes better for the ground
whereupon a termite hill grows like a horn".
Orunmila says: "It goes better";
I say: "It goes better";
he says: "It goes better for barren woman of Ife,
who becomes the mother of children".
Two pigeons, two roosters, two snails,
two rats and two fishes, with 2400 cowries,
is the sacrifice. Ifa says that we will
do something that will give us honor,
we will become an honored person by doing this.
If it is a business matter that we will enter into,
then we will gain honor through it, and things
will go better for us.
The ewe for this verse is
the leaf of "Make white make white" which
is called Evolvus Asinoides, the leaves of
the African rubbertree that is called Funtunmia Elastica,
and soap. We will grind this together with
the heads of both rats and both fishes; we will
kill one of the pigeons, and press its head
on top of the soap, which in turn will be put
on top of the ground mishmash in the calabash.
We will draw Irosun-Oshe in the powder,
and throw the powder into the calabash.
We will use this mixture to wash ourselves.
