|
| A woodcock is carving an arrow. While carving, it is sitting bent forward. |
| 2 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The birds gathered and come to the woodcock in an army. |
| 3 |
|
|
|
|
|
| They came there, to the woodcock. |
| 4 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The horned grebe and the black-throated loon say, you stay behind. |
| 5 |
|
|
|
| We'll sneak up on it. |
| 6 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| They sneak up on it, the black-throated loon says to the horned grebe: you peck it in the kidney, I'll peck it in the heart. |
| 7 |
|
|
| They sneaked up on it. |
| 8 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The horned grebe pecked it in the kidney, the black-throated loon pecked it in the heart. |
| 9 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| When it jumped up, the horned grabe's ischia got stamped down, the black-throated loon's ischia got stamped down, the bridge of the scoter's beak was punched through by the arrow shaft. |
| 10 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Then the swan says, I'll put on a white dress. |
| 11 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The black-throated loon says, I'll put on a coat of mail. |
| 12 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I'll put on a dress embroidered lengthwise. |
| 13 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The scoter says, I'll put on a black smock. |
| 14 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The goldeneye says, I'll put on armor. |
| 15 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The tufted duck says, I'll put on a squirrel fur. |
| 16 |
|
|
| They went. |
| 17 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The younger brother came to the older brother. When he looks, his brother has been killed. |
| 18 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Then he sat crying at his brother's head. |
| 19 |
|
|
|
|
| From there he flew off as a woodcock. |
| 20 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| To this very day he flies about and to this very day he cries. |
