Go back to your home and people,Live among them, toil among them,Cleanse the earth from all that harms the fishing-grovmds and all monsters and magicians.

Ever deeper, deeper, deeper Fell the snow oer all the landscape. Carry both arms front, hands relaxed to shoulder level, on word fell,^ let them descend about to waist-line, then carry them out tosides. As arms ascend slightly depress head, as they descend, raisehead. Hardly from his buried wigwamCould the hunter force a passage; The hands have sunk at sides. Slowly bring both arms to frontnear
