for her people , the males of her group , were boisterous and loud and given to much physical contact : to great hugs and lifting of bodies upon greeting , to the flinging of their bodies into aimless bouts of wrestling , to clashing large gongs and blowing screechy horns as they drank their demon drinkhow else to report it ? and became even more rowdy and boastful and fired up into clouds of frenzied dancingall this but yet no violence , not a fight nor a single blood-drop spotting the ground , not bashings with cane or sword or chasing away with a hail of rocksall day this male bumping and thumping and melee , but issuing into a placid calmness of night .
