Atahualpa's Game[Peruvian]
Sometimes, it's not wiseTo share your wisdom---as did, Atahualpa(The Inca King) in theGame of chess; thereafter,He was condemned to death.

Note: Atahualpa, was the most famous of the Inca Kings, in the 16th century of Peru, I do relieve, and was held for ransom by the Spaniards. And legend has it, because of a chess game, he was killed, while Catalina Wanka was on her way bringing Gold for his freedom, of which she stopped abruptly, and hid, once finding out, the king was murdered by the Spaniards.
El Juego de Atahualpa
A veces, no es sabioCompartir su sabidura---como hizo, Atahualpa( El Rey inca) en elJuego de ajedrez; a partir de entonces,l fue condenado a muerte.

Ica, Witches[Peruvian]
Do not go to Ica, dear friendThere you may find witches-In toast and bread?
Perhaps lose your head,Perhaps find them in bedPerhaps, find yourself dead.
6/6/05 #714 [Ica, is in Northern Peru]
Note: there are stories, that even my wife agrees with, that she has heard that witches haunt this area of Peru; a city in the South part of Peru.
brujas de Ica
No vaya a Ica, querido amigoAll usted puede encontrar brujas-En tostada y pan ?Quizs pierda su cabeza,Quizs los encuentre en la camaQuizs, se encuentre muerto.
