2. On one afternoon there 
was a small child playing in 
the front-yard of a house. A 
delightful cool air was at the 
place where it played. 
3. After a while the eagle 
saw the child in the yard. 
The eagle swooped down and 
snatched the child and flew 
away with it to the mountain. 
4. When the child screamed, 
the eagle had already risen 
high. Excessive was the fright 
of the people when looking up 
at the eagle that had taken the 
child and carried it to the cave. 
5. The people followed it and 
reached the mountain; it was 
impassable for it was very 
steep and high. They listened 
for the crying of the child 
above, but little was heard by 
them. After looking up for a 
while they did not hear its 
crying. They went back for 
they thought it had been eaten 
by the eagle.
