  The

  refers 
  to 
  the

  The

  welcome 
  

   the

  here!" 
  

  

  In 
  singing 
  this 
  song 
  the 
  stems 
  are 
  waved 
  to 
  the 
  rhythm 
  of 
  the 
  

   music 
  and 
  the, 
  rattles 
  are 
  shaken 
  with 
  an 
  accented 
  beat 
  but 
  no 
  

   drum 
  is 
  used. 
  At 
  the 
  close 
  of 
  the 
  song 
  the 
  party 
  moves 
  forward 
  a 
  

   little 
  space, 
  then 
  a 
  halt 
  is 
  made, 
  and 
  the 
  song 
  is 
  repeated. 
  There 
  are 
  

   four 
  halts,- 
  at 
  each 
  of 
  which 
  the 
  song 
  is 
  sung. 
  The 
  fourth 
  halt 
  is 
  

   made 
  at 
  the 
  entrance 
  of 
  the 
  lodge, 
  which 
  has 
  been 
  prepared 
  and 
  

   stands 
  ready 
  for 
  the 
  ceremony. 
  The 
  actual 
  entrance 
  is 
  in 
  silence. 
  

   When 
  the 
  west 
  side 
  of 
  the 
  lodge 
  is 
  reached, 
  the 
  pipe 
  bearers 
  stand 
  

   facing 
  the 
  east 
  and 
  sing 
  the 
  following 
  song 
  :

  Ho! 
  exclamation; 
  ithathe, 
  I

   end 
  of

  The 
  words 
  of 
  the 
  song 
  are 
  few 
  but 
  their 
  meaning 
  

   was 
  explained 
  to 
  be: 
  " 
  Ho! 
  I 
  have 
  found 
  the 
  man 
  worthy 
  to 
  receive 
  

   the 
  pipes 
  and 
  all 
  the 
  blessings 
  which 
  they 
  bring 
  — 
  peace, 
  the 
  promise 
  

   of 
  abundant 
  life, 
  food, 
  and 
  happiness." 
  The 
  words 
  also 
  imply 
  a 
  rec- 
  

   ognition 
  of 
  the 
  qualities 
  which 
  make 
  the 
  man 
  worthy 
  of 
  the 
  selec- 
  

   tion, 
  and 
  which 
  instigated 
  the 
  choice 
  by 
  the 
  leader. 
  

  

  The 
  following 
  song 
  was 
  sung 
  as
