Analysis.—This song contains the tones B flat, E flat, G natural, 
and A natural, suggesting the key of B flat major, yet the third 
of that key does not appear. (See No. 33.) The song begins 
with an ascending octave. Only one other Ute song has this initia] 
interval (No. 91). Chippewa and Sioux songs with this peculiarity 
are noted in Bulletin 53, page 81, and Bulletin 61, page 343. It 
also begins and ends on the same tone. (See Nos. 42, 59, 91, and 97 
of this series; also Bull. 53, p. 222, and Bull. 61, p. 257.) About 
one-third of the intervals are fourths. Two rhythmic units occur, 
the rhythm of the second unit being steadily different from that of 
the first unit. A first and second ending occurs also in the dupli- 
cation No. 39 and in No. 48. 
This song is considered in the Appendix, pages 206-208.
