Read this excerpt from "The Beautiful Girl of the Moon Tower” in The People Could Fly

"Ai, ai! Make of me an ant
That goes where nobody knows."
The ant went under the father's bed.
The girl came there to her father. She asked him, "My father, where is your life?"
Her father said, "Why do you ask me? It is for some bedevilment."
"No, I only want to know," she said.
"Well," he said to her, "my life is inside the belly of a hog in my garden. Inside the hog's belly is an egg. Inside the egg is my life."
The ant that was Anton had been listening, and he said,
"Ai, ai! Make of me a boy."
