Now then! Ha, now swiftly the enemy has come and hit thee. He has passed 

 by {four times) . 



Ha, it is but the enemy (who) swiftly came and hit thee, it seems. He has 

 passed by {four times) . 



EXPLANATION 



This formula is for the same purpose as No. 10 and is very similar 

 to it; the treatment also is about the same. The medicine man 

 recites the first paragraph, and then rubs into the eyes of the patient 

 a httle of the ttse'Ji (Alnus rugosa (Du Roi) Spreng. ; also Alnus serrulata 

 Willd., alder) infusion, the bark being used, after v/hich he blows 

 into the eyes, holding the eyelids apa,rt as he does so. 



The same is done after the recitation of the second paragraph, and 

 the whole ceremony is repeated two or four times.
