15 All the laddei' descending children 

 of the corn priest 

 Desire the breath of their fatliers, 

 Priests of the masked gods; 



Since somehow it was not clear to 

 which clan they belonged, 

 20 Kaklo, pekwin priest, 



Made his road come hither. 



To all the ladder descending chil-

In order that their children may 

 have someone whom they call 

 their second father, 



That they may have one whom they 

 call their second mother, 

 25 Now that they have sent for lis

 roads. 



I have told off the sequence of your 

 days, 



Anxiously awaiting your time, 



I have told off the sequence of your 

 days. 

 30 Seemingly now all the eiglit days are 

 past, 



It is the ninth night, 



Now all of us 



Shall pass you on your roads. 



We shall pass a blessed night to-

And to-morrow,

Has come forth standing to his 

 sacred place. 



Throughout a blessed day. 



We shall come to evening. 



When our children 



Into the corn priest's court have 

 brought their roads, 

 40 Our fathers. 



Priests of the masked gods. 



With their powerful weapons 



Four times will strike our young 

 ones. 



In order that this may be 

 45 We have passed you on your roads. 



This is all. 



Thus with plain words 



We have passed you on your road. 



To-morrow
