Then all the men stood on each side of the canoe | at the places 70 

 where they were going to sit. When all the men had come, | they 

 took up the canoe on each side and carried it into the deep water, so 

 that it did not touch | the beach, and then they put it down on the 

 water. | Then they went aboard and sat down. They were not 

 going to change their || seats as long as they were away making war. | 75 



When all were seated aboard, one man who was | not going to war 

 stood up outside of the house of Q!omogwa | carrying a baton and 

 when he saw that all the men who were going to war | were seated 

 aboard, wearing around their necks the kelp containing their breaths, 

 then he || shouted aloud, "Wii a a," beating time on the front | SO 

 boards of the house. Then the wives of the warriors came | out of 

 their houses with blackened faces, and all wearing their belts. | They 

 ran down to the beach and went to the place where the | two war 

 canoes were staying. As soon as they were nearly II there, the man S5 

 shouted again, "Wii ii ii," beating at the same time | on the front 

 boards of the house. | Then the wives of the crew came out of their 

 houses wearing belts, but their faces were not | blackened. They 

 ran down to the beach, and | when they were just running down to 

 the beach, the warriors threw || the breath-carrying kelp neck rings 90 

 to their wives, | and the wives of the warriors just | met the wives
