To get quite close, he held his breatli, Then shot an arrow fast;A bird then flapped its wings in death, The heart to beat its With bird, for home he would depart,To show that he was brave, And was not born, with womans heart,*To share a cowards grave. He lost his way to his tepee. And then began to weep,But soon laid down beneath a tree. With bird in hand, to sleep. When he awoke at early morn. The bird still in his hills he saw the crimson dawn That came from paleface land. In dread, he started then to run, And hid behind a did not know it was the Sun That lit up earths outline. *//;/ Indian ivilJi a womans heart is one who lackscourage.
