Note 3 — STORIES ACCOMPANIED BY TEXTS

By and by something said to him: “Call upon Cold-weather. Call upon North-wind.”3 He did not understand what the thing said to him [and it continued]: “Sing North songs. Then you will be saved.” So he began singing: “X̣unē′ qā′sa x̣unē′, let the sky clear altogether, hū⁺n hū⁺n hūn hūn.” After that he sat on the rock and, after he had sung “X̣unisä′⁺, let it be cold weather; gaiyä′ʟisä′⁺, let it be smooth on the water” for a while North weather set in. The wind accompanying it was strong. Then he began to sing for smooth water. And, when it became smooth, the surface of the sea froze. When the ice became thick his friends came and got him. But he was not able to walk.
