He was almost in reach of the lodgewhen he threw the other stone. The horse stoppedto stamp on that, and the boy reached the lodge andjumped in. Very soon the girl entered. She knew him atonce and called him by name — Iwapnep Atswitki,Cry-because-he-had-no-wife. She talked to him andasked him if he wanted a bath. So she built a fire,heated water, and prepared him a bath. When hehad taken the bath he became of mans size. Next morning they started toward his home.
