"Yuí and Tima, children of an arwakan Indian, gave off light throughout their whole body and that was why she had hidden them in a cave, so they couldn’t be stolen. The other Indians, who wanted to see them, played beautiful melodies in order to make them come out. Yuí, the male, came out but flew out very fast to heaven. When Tima, the female, came out, the Indians threw ashes into her eyes to blind her, but she also flew in the same direction of her brother´s and stayed closed by. Since her face had been stained, she did not have the same glow as Yuí, but in the evenings. she watches over the meadows of the Arawakos. Tima became the moon, Yuí the sun. "
