| Performance of the Weir Maker. |
| 2 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Three men enter with a birchbark mask. |
| 3 |
|
|
|
|
| One of them makes a weir. |
| 4 |
|
|
|
| He goes along singing. |
| 5 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I catch a milty sterlet. |
| 6 |
|
|
|
| I put it in the boat. |
| 7 |
|
|
|
|
| I catch a roe-filled sterlet. |
| 8 |
|
|
|
| I put it in the water. |
| 9 |
|
|
|
|
| Tailed fish arise |
| 10 |
|
|
|
|
| finned fish arise. |
| 11 |
|
|
| He comes back. |
| 12 |
|
|
| He sleeps. |
| 13 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Again he goes along singing. |
| 14 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I catch a milty sterlet. |
| 15 |
|
|
|
| I put it in the boat. |
| 16 |
|
|
|
|
| I catch a roe-filled sterlet. |
| 17 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I place it as an offering to the god and goddess. |
| 18 |
|
|
|
|
|
| He comes there: (it's) empty. |
| 19 |
|
|
| He says: |
| 20 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Those travelling upstream should just go, |
| 21 |
|
|
|
|
|
| those travelling downstream should just go! |
| 22 |
|
|
|
| [my miserable weir] |
| 23 |
|
|
|
| Why do they touch my miserable weir? |
| 24 |
|
|
|
| I'll build an iron weir |
| 25 |
|
|
|
| I'll build a stone weir. |
| 26 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| He built it and comes back singing. |
| 27 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I catch a milty sterlet. |
| 28 |
|
|
|
| food for the servant. |
| 29 |
|
|
|
|
| I catch a roe-filled sterlet. |
| 30 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I place it as an offering to the god and goddess. |
| 31 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The one playing the old man cries out: May your belly not dry up. |
| 32 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| There will be no servant's food, there will be nothing to place as an offering to the god and goddess. |
| 33 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| You, he says, uncle, what did you say? |
| 34 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I, he says, wish to eat, I've been grinding my teeth. |
| 35 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I have now made an iron weir, I've made a stone weir, tomorrow I'll catch fish. |
| 36 |
|
|
|
| He slept with the uncle. |
| 37 |
|
|
|
| The next day he sprang up. |
| 38 |
|
|
|
|
| Again he rowed off. |
| 39 |
|
|
|
|
| Again he sings. |
| 40 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I catch a milty sterlet, |
| 41 |
|
|
|
| food for the servant. |
| 42 |
|
|
|
|
| I catch a roe-filled sterlet. |
| 43 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I place it as an offering to the god and goddess. |
| 44 |
|
|
|
|
|
| When he gets up close: |
| 45 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Those travelling upstream should just go, |
| 46 |
|
|
|
|
|
| those travelling downstream should just go! |
| 47 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| [my water fish trap] |
| 48 |
|
|
|
|
|
| [my land fish trap] |
| 49 |
|
|
|
| Why do they touch my water fish trap, my land fish trap? |
| 50 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| He repaired it to some degree, didn't even clean it. |
| 51 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| He lay in wait with a club, he sits. |
| 52 |
|
|
|
|
| The stealing man comes. |
| 53 |
|
|
|
|
| He comes to him. |
| 54 |
|
|
|
|
| He started to check on the weir. |
| 55 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Then he jumped him, he hit him with the iron club. |
| 56 |
|
|
|
| He cried out once. |
| 57 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Then they jumped up to dance. |
| 58 |
|
|
| They went out. |
