Note 1 — He who hunted birds in his father’s village

Reading edition

He was a chief’s son. He wore two marten-skin blankets, one over the other.1 After he had shot birds for some time he went along among some bull pines, which stood in an open space behind the town and presently heard geese2 calling. Then he went thither. Two women were bathing in a lake. On the shore opposite two goose skins hung over a stick. The roots of their tails were spotted with white.
