“Sheep are washed here in the month of May. ...”
Sheep are washed here in the month of May. Some people take the sheep to the river and a man goes out and dips each sheep a few times in the water. Others do not go out into the river at all but put a rope round the sheep's neck and throw it out and pull it in with the rope.
