The words of Song 10, which closes this group, are also unintel- 

 igible, but the song refers to the successes acliieved by the warriors 

 through the Symbolic Man. In tliis song the Sjonbolic Man himself 

 speaks of his feet, legs, body, arms, head, and mouth. These words 

 are spoken clearly and are understood to mean the strength of the 

 people as attained by the tribal organization which at all times is 

 represented by the Symbolic Man.
