went up. Coyote asked them: ** Did not my buttocks pass you?” 
“Just now something passed down here. The boys threw spears 
at it.” 
Coyote went on. ‘* Piihéhé, piihéhé, pi,” said his buttocks. He 
reached them. Now his buttocks were small, and all torn by the 
thrusts of spears and sticks. He put them on, and at last they 
fitted. ** Badger shall be your name—you who fooled me. Future 
generations of men shall fear your winds only. You shall not kill 
birds.” Then Coyote went on. He kept on going.
