Raven told Man these tame reindeerwould be very few in number. Again Raven took two pieces of clay and shapedthem like the caribou or wild reindeer. But he heldthem in his hands only a little while so that only thebellies of the reindeer became dry and white. ThenRaven drew down his beak-mask, and waved his wingsover them, and they bounded away.
