once Ex'ag'id went to where ^wllEnktilag'ilis was standing. | He 16 

 carried his shell knife, knd said, " Your words are good, great friend. \ 

 I am cruel. Therefore I shall do according to your wish, Super- 

 natural-One. I Let me do it!" Thus he said, and he cut around the 

 shoulder-blade so that it remained | attached to the right arm. He 

 cut it off and threw it toward the || door; and he took off the left 20 

 arm and tlirew it down | in front of the place where Head-Winter- 

 Dancer was seated; and he cut off the | right leg at the hip, and 

 threw it down not | far from where Head-Winter-Dancer was 

 seated ; and he cut off the | left leg and threw it down; and finally he 

 cut off his head, || and threw it down not far from where | Ex'ag'id 25 

 was standing. And it was not long before the body moved | and 

 rolled toward where the head lay. And when | it came to it, the 

 head stuck to the body, | and it rolled toward the place where the 

 right leg lay, and it stuck || on; and it rolled to where the left leg 30 

 lay, I and it stuck; and it rolled to where the | right arm lay, and 

 it stuck on; and he arose | and walked back to his left arm, and 

 stuck it on. | And after he had done so, Head-Winter-Dancer and ll 

 his tribe ran out of the house, and went aboard their canoes, \ and 35 

 they escaped from ^wilEnkiilag'ilis. Now they were all going home. 

 They were | ashamed, because Head-Winter-Dancer had been over- 

 come by ^wilEnkulag'ilis. J
