362 THE PIMA INDIANS [etii. ann. 26 



but we must go.'- They started on their journey and camped once 

 before arriving and .salutiiio- their friends. They took sun's ra3's and 

 painted triangles on their })lankets. 



Wliile this was happening among them my 3'oung men were prepar- 

 ing to tight. They rushed u))on them like flying l)irds and swept them 

 from the eartli. Starting out upon ni}- trail I reached tiie tirst water, 

 whence I sent my swiftest young men to carry the message of victory 

 to tlie old people at home. Before the Magician's door the earth was 

 swept, and there my young men and women danced with headdresses 

 and flowers on their heads. The wind arose and, cutting ofl:' these 

 ornaments, carried them to the sky and hung them there. The rain 

 fell uj^on the high places, the clouds enveloped the mountains, the 

 torrents descended upon the springs and fell upon the trees. 



You may think this over, my relatives. The taking of life brings 

 serious thoughts of the waste; the celebration of victory may become 

 unpleasantly liotous.
