=Mooma=, youngest sister of Yer[=u]ti. Their father and mother were the
only persons of the whole Guar[=a]ni race who escaped a small-pox plague
which ravished that part of Paraguay. They left the fatal spot and lived
in the Mondai woods, where both their children were born. Before the
birth of Mooma, her father was eaten by a jag[)u]ar, and the three
survivors lived in the woods alone. When grown to a youthful age, a
Jesuit priest persuaded them to come and live at St. Jo[)a]chin (3
_syl._); so they left the wild woods for a city life. Here the mother
soon flagged and died. Mooma lost her spirits, was haunted with
thick-coming fancies of good and bad angels, and died. Yer[=u]ti begged
to be baptized, received the rite, cried, "Ye are come for me! I am
ready;" and died also.--Southey, _A Tale of Paraguay_ (1814).
