Text translation: 'The local people of Guiyang, Guangshun and Anshun follow the same marriage customs as the Han. At weddings, men and women celebrate together. While working in the fields, they sing in harmony, their farming songs clear and pleasant to hear. At the New Year, they strike gongs and drums, sing sacred songs and perform theatrical plays. Wherever they go, households provide them with food and drink. Those living by the Qiong River are especially fond of lively festivities, which have now become a well-established custom.'
