“Yes, as youlike,” said the Raccoon. ‘‘ Have you any pitch? They 
hit me here with a chisel, and then they poured pitch over me.” Now 
he boiled some pitch. He asked the Bear: ‘* Have you a chisel?” The 
Bear replied: **I have one.” Now the pitch was boiling. Then the 
Bear was told: ** Lie down on your back.” He lay down. He said: 
“Oh brother, you will kill me!” The Raccoon replied: ‘‘As you 
like; if you don’t wish it, I shall not paint you. You do not need to 
be painted.” But the Bear said: ‘*You must paint me, younger 
brother.” Then he struck him with the chisel here at the forehead. 
He poured the pitch down over his face. He told him: ‘‘ Jump into 
the water.” The Bear jumped into the water. There he rolled 
about. 
Then the Raccoon ran away. He went a long distance and met a 
person. He was dancing. He sang ** 22
