told | by his grandmother what he would do. Then, after he had looked at the || old man, he went down the river. He saw a tent | 295 standing there, and entered. Then there was a snowstorm. It was very | cold. He was told to come in. "Ha! why | should my nephew be lying here?" He was told: "Come in here | to your brothers and sisters!" Then Ya.ukᵘe′ika·m lay down, || and they 300 warmed him. He staid there and struck his testicles|. | When Bighorn went up again, he lay down and threw warm things on him, | and he threw them on himself. Thus he was not cold. | He always did so. The old man lay there while the tent owner was striking | his testicles. The old man said: "Hoi, || there is noise 305 of bursting eyes!" Ya.ukᵘe′ika·mwas a full-grown | man. After a long time the tent owner again struck his testicles, | and Bighorn said again what he had said before. | Now he said: "Don't let it be cold any more!" Then the old man | called his manitous. Ya.ukᵘe′ika·m was told: || "Go on; go there quickly! The old man 310 will soon be on this side of the water. | When you get there and he comes ashore, don't let him see you. Then, | when he goes up, go behind and get into | his canoe. Then go back in the canoe. Do the same as he did | when he wanted to kill you. You shall do the same. When || you get across in the canoe, then go up and throw | warm 315 things on yourself. Then listen; and when you hear | again noise of eyes bursting, | then say: 'Don't let it be cold any more.' | Then come back in your canoe and go up. || He will be lying there, and he will be- 320 come a mountain sheep. Then take | the arrow straightener." Thus Ya.ukᵘe′ika·m had been told. Then | he started. He got there, and he saw the old man just | coming back to this side in his canoe. (The old man) did not see him. He went up the cliff j on the bank of the river. Now Ya.ukᵘe′ika·m went aboard and went back. || His penis 325 that he had moved in the water j and that he shook in' the water was lying in the canoe. ThenYa.ukᵘe′ika·m took it. | The old man looked at his canoe, and Ya.ukᵘe′ika·m was already | on the water. (The old man) had not been able to kill him. He said to him: | "Come back to the shore!" (Ya.ukᵘe′ika·m) did not look at the old man, who said this many times. || When he was in the middle of the water, he 330 stopped there | and took the old man's penis. The old man said: | "Don't touch the thing that lies there, son." | Then, when he touched it, he said: "Don't put it into the water." When | he put it into the water, Ya.ukᵘe′ika·m sang. He said:|| "I always take them across in my canoe, he he ha, he he ha!" | 335 Then the old man cried. Ya.ukᵘe′ika·m went back ashore, |
