No. 133. Record IV. D. 7b 



Unfortunately the first few notes of this song could not be heard. There is 

 very little of a formal character to be discovered. An elaboration of the d 

 measure in others like e, g, h and c, and the roughly complementary relation of 

 the B phrase to A and of D to C are about the only evidences of formal structure. 

 The finer rhythmic values are noteworthy, for they are not common among the 

 Copper Eskimos. Presumably the song begins on the fifth degree of the scale. 

 It ends on the second although this is no more prominent a tone than the fifttjl 

 the third or even the tonic. The little cry at the end, not included in the analysis^ 

 it will be seen is a stylistic feature found in practically all four regions from 

 which collections have been made.
