LEWElaxa his name shall no longer be Sewid. Now his name shall 

 be II Ha,mdzid (XVII 1). As soon as he finishes the LEWElaxa, in 25 

 four I days, then his name shall again be Sewid (XVII 2). Now he 

 himself will | dance to invite you. And therefore his name is | 

 Yemask'as^o Qlomogwa as a helik'ilal; and his name is | Hamdzid 

 because he takes care of the LEWElaxa. That is it." || Thus said 30 

 L laqwaglla (XV 4) . | 



As soon as they had finished breakfast, they went out, and | two 

 painters worked to make the mask of Qlomogwa. | And as soon as 

 night came, Llaqwag'ila (XV 4), chief of the | Awik' !enox", asked 

 two of his speakers and two of the || speakers of L!s1qwagilagEme^ 35 

 (XVI 1) to listen to what the people were saying when they | went 

 to call their tribe and the guests to go into the | dancing-house. As 

 soon as the four | speakers had assembled, Llaqwag'ila instructed 

 them what to say outside | of the doors of aU the houses. "This is 

 what you will say, || 



"'O LEWElaxa dancers! I call you to restore to his senses Yemas- 40 

 k'as^o Qlomogwa, | the helik'ilal, Q!omogwa. You shall sing for 

 our Yemask' as^o | Qlomogwa.'" | 



As soon as they stopped speaking at the doors of the houses, | the 

 men, women, || and their children arose, and went into the LEWElaxa 45 

 house, for | all wished to see the new thing that is called LEWElaxa,
