Awó Mayere wagered against the Obá's favorite over who could bring more people out into the street without blood running; with Eshu Bi and Shangó as his allies he won by being intelligent, riding his young bull, and inherited the throne.
Prayer: Adifafun Awo Malu Mayere Sokin Imbowa Ni Olofin Unlo Ni Ile Awo Belegun Oyu Miniosi Orunmila Un Soro Kowa Dudu Igbo Eshu Bi Ini Fila Foribale Awo Delele Oba Awo Mayere Odun Awo Malu Ade Oba Orisha Aso Oba Ilu Lodafun Orunmila Maferefun Eshu.
Ebbó: a young bull (replaced by an inshé of malú), akukó and a white cap, a cowbell, ekú, eyá and otí, all kinds of food, opolopo owó.
An Awó named Awó Mayere lived in a place where he could not get ahead; he wanted to leave and could not manage it. He came before Orunmila, who saw this Ifá for him, the Odù that belonged to him, and marked him ebbó with a young bull, a rooster and a white cap, ekú, eyá and gbogbo otí, and told him to take it to the place where he planned to move.
When he got there he ran into Eshu Bi, who lived in the bush. Eshu asked him for the cap the Awó was carrying; Awó Mayere gave him moforibale, and when asked what brought him there, he explained his business. Just then the Obá's favorite was passing by with his retinue, and Eshu Bi told him that the man was a wrestler, the Obá's favorite, and that nobody beat him. The Awó said he would like to measure himself against him. To this Eshu Bi answered: "Come, I will introduce you to my friend Shangó," and Shangó gave his approval.
The next day, Awó Mayere and Eshu Bi went to the Obá's house to set the terms of the fight: the prize would go to whoever, in fifteen days, brought more people out into the street without any blood being spilled.
The Obá's favorite went first. Eshu Bi went out too: at the corner he found ekú, eyá and awadó, further on otí, and when he reached the café a huge fight broke out. Many times the obiní dropped their chores to see the Obá's favorite, and trouble came with the husbands, which at times ended in blood. Things went on that way until the Obá ordered his favorite: "Do not go out any more, because too much blood has been spilled."
Then it was Awó Mayere's turn. He rode down the street on the young bull at twelve midnight, like lightning: he went so fast that nobody could see him. The noise at night left people alarmed, because nobody could make out who it was; even the Obá himself got alarmed.
Later Mayere came out into the street again on the young bull, very slowly and in broad daylight. Behind him came an endless crowd, and in the town there was no misfortune and no accident at all. That is how he won the bet, for being the smarter one, and the Obá rewarded him by leaving him as his successor on the throne.
Note: here the ankle bracelet and the change of lerí are born; it is an Ifá of inheritance, and in it the beasts were tamed and the cows as well. A red and black cap is used, and a cowbell is put behind the door. Work: a young bull to Shangó at the river bank; the Ogue are loaded. It is also born here that Awoses and Santeros do not sit down in parks.
