the end to a tree standing on the bank of the river. | After doing so, 18 
she carries the baskets on her back | to the place where she knows 
many berries are growing; and when || she comes to where they are 20 
thickest, she puts down her baskets, | puts the cedar-bark belt 
around her waist, and, | after doing so, she puts on her cedar-bark 
hat. Then | she places the baskets apart, one in each place among 
the | plants, and she picks off the berries and puts them into the || 
nearest basket. She is sitting between the baskets. | Therefore she 25 
puts them into the nearest one, and therefore she puts them | into 
every basket that has been put down all around the woman. As | 
soon as all the baskets are full, she does not carry them on her back, | 
but she takes hold of each side with her hands || and carries them out 30 
of the woods, taking them to her | small canoe. She puts them down 
in the bow of the | canoe; and when they are all in, she | goes into 
the bow of the canoe, after having untied the anchor-line. | Then she 
takes her paddle and pushes off her small || canoe, and she paddles. 35 
She drifts down the river; | and as soon as she reaches the front of the 
house, she goes ashore. | When she arrives, she takes hold of the 
baskets on each side | with her hands, and carries them up the 
beach. | After they have all been taken up, she eats a little. |
