Analysis. — This is a f;iv(>i-il(> souj^ of tlic Sioux, si fact Avliich 

 explains wliy it was recorded by three singers on wich^ly separated 

 parts of the reservation. The words of the first two smgers are 

 practically the same, while the third singer mentions the streams, 

 instead of the hills of the north country; the differences in the melody 

 arc slight. The rendition by ]\Iany Wounds is the one used in the 

 tabulated analyses. The song is based on the fourth five-toned 

 scale and contains a large percentage^ of minor thirds. It is melodic 

 in structure and has a compass of an octave.
