Analysis. — Tliis melody contains a large number of progressions 

 (69) and has a compass of 13 tones. The trend of the melody is 

 steadily downward, and the song is peculiar in the wide range which 

 is repeatedly employed witliin two or three measures; thus the sixth 

 and seventh measures comprise a compass of 10 tones. In the parts 

 of the song having a simple rhythm the drum and voice coincided, 

 but in other parts the drumbeat was hastened slightly and bore no 

 relation to the voice. 



All night the men danced, with the intervals of rest already 

 described. As the sun rose on the second day, the Intercessor 

 greeted it with the following song:
