WOODMYTH & FABLE 



THREE LORDS AND A LITTLE 



LORD 



HERE were three Lords 

 and a little Lord in the 

 forest where Manitou made 

 them. 



The first was Mi-in-gan. He was swift 

 as the spotted Redfin and tireless as the 

 Kamanistiquia where it leaps from Kaka- 

 beka Rock to the boiling gorge of the 

 Gitche Nanka. His voice was like the 

 moan of a far looming whirlwind — not 

 loud nor rough, but soft, and yet with a 

 tone to freeze the stoutest heart. His 

 weapons were twenty-four white arrows 

 that pierced the foe, then leaped back 

 again to their quiver; and his cunning was 

 like that of the Wa-wa of many snows.
