Analysis. — This song, like the preceding, is major in tonality and 

 contains all the tones of the octave except the seventh. The repeti- 

 tions begin without a break in the time. In this, as in numerous 

 other instances, the tone marked •) was similarly shortened in all the 

 renditions. The song is melodic in structure, yet we note that the 

 first six measures are based on the minor triad of F sharp; the 

 melody then ascends to E, and the tonic chord appears in the down- 

 ward progression. A prominence of the submediant triad (minor) at 

 the opening of a song in a major key was observed in the Chippewa 

 songs and is of frequent occurrence in the present series.
