A certain woman went to dig wild turnips. Presently, when she was 
in a marshy hollow, all her companions went home. Then she got lost. 
She did not know where to go. Then at one time a white horse came 
running toward her. She fled; it pursued her; it drove her all around. 
Then for how many nights? perhaps for ten days it did not cease from the 
pursuit. There where that horse made her go, there they stayed together; 
Then that woman would walk about 
here and there ; the foal went with her. Whenever she saw human beings, 
she fled; she was very fleet of foot, like a horse. 
Then at one time, “Now do you go home,” her mate, the horse, told 
her; “Many of my children you will take home with you; you will lead 
them to your brothers,” he told her. 
“Very well.” 
Now the time came when she went out of the lodge to go home. Then 
he whooped; a loud call he gave, that horse; with his call he brought a 
great troop of horses that came out of the water; all these she took home 
for her brothers. And when she went home, the foal went along with her. 
Then she arrived yonder. She brought a great troop of horses. Then her 
children played with the foal that was her child; they kept trying to ride 
it; the foal ran away. The woman ran in pursuit of her child. 
This is another story we have finished, of how a woman had a horse 
for her mate. This too is of a strange happening of long ago; we shall 
laugh afterwards.
