FREE TRANSLATION 



Now then! Ha, now thou hast come to listen, Brown Otter; in the 

 direction of the Cold Land thou art staying. Thou and I have 

 become united as one, quickly thou hast arisen. Thou wizard, thou 

 never failest in anything. It is merely what has become a ghost that 

 has put the important thing under him,^^ or maybe a speaker of evil 

 (words) has caused it. 



Now then! Now thou hast come to pull it out. The paths lay 

 themselves out toward the Night Land. Thou and I have come to 

 put it at rest in the Great Lake, away in the Night Land. Who 

 cares what happens to it! Relief will be caused continuously! 

 Sharply ! 



EXPLANATION 



This is another formula for the cure of aye*'liGO''Gi or simulator- 

 diseases, and the general ceremony is the same as already described. 

 (See p. 73.) 



The medicine used is a v/arm infusion of the roots of tso''liyi;'sti 

 u'ntkw*t*e*'no°, Verbascum thapsus L., common mullein; Gf'GaGf' 

 a'DZt'lo°'sld, Lobelia cardinalis L., cardinal flower; and of the bark of 

 itseH, Alnus rugosa (Du Roi) Spreng., smooth alder.^^ 



The cup containing the infusion is placed on the floor upon a piece 

 of cloth, about one or two yards in length, together with four beads — 

 red, blue, black, and white. The cloth [and the beads] are kept by 

 the medicine man as his pay after the ceremony. 



^8 The patient.
