Song addressed to a new chief—Continued 43 '>i.''i.^rrrtrii!^ii^iiiCJ[gic:rc.^![gc?tit. fiirrpTpia \> i uu \'J^ \tlu^ tTtiW^^ Rhythm of scraping-sticks Translation I wonder if somewhere in an eastern village a new chief has arisen for the year, This is what I said, I wonder if somewhere in an eastern village a new chief has arisen for the year, This is what I said. From the north direction it has rained, From the west direction the water comes in streams. In front of the streams of water. Down toward the east the lightnings come down and strike the earth. All of us receive life. Now chief, for this life-giving rain, you must love the earth and the sky. We all receive the benefit from the rain. It is the duty of the chief to look after his people. This is what I ask you to do. From the south it is raining. From the east the water is coming in streams. In front of the streams of water toward the west, From there westward the lightning strikes the earth, All of us receive crops. Now here, chief, are crops. With this you may love your people. This I ask of Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Smithsonian Institution.
