At the end of vocal section 3 of item 3, Muluk introduces Text 3 for the first time. But even before he does this, he takes the fragment of this text (the last text phrase, ‘[karra] ngiya-it dörr) that he combined with Text B in the following item, and now combines it with a fragment of Text A ‘Karra yenetpi yenitpiwe’ to create the text seen in melodic section 1 of vocal section 1 as well as in a number of later melodic sections. In the third melodic section of vocal section 1 he once again combines this Text C fragment with Text B.
