LEGEND ON How the Sun was made
The woman who fell down from Heaven was unhappy on the Great island.
she was alone. There was no one to whom she could speak. she wept &
wrung her hands. She was sorry she said she had done wrong. she had
lost her country. She had lost her husband. She wanted to go back to
the land above the sky.
One day Hoo-Wa'neh heard her weeping. she was lost wife. He had great
pity for her, he could not take her back to the sky land, but he told
her what to do.
The woman did just as he said. She went into the hills. She came to a
place where tall trees grew, it was like a beautiful park. A clear,
swift river ran there, and the leaning trees along the blank made
shadows on the water. From the hill the woman looked far off. she saw
an Indian lodge in a clump of trees on the river bank. From its top
rose the smoke of a fire. She came to the door, and sat on a stone
before its door. A woman came out to speak to her. It was her mother
... She had been there by Hoo-Wa' neh. so the woman lived with her
mother & was happy.
Before the woman came, all the lower World was dark. Now the Woman was
its light!...But when she went into the lodge, darkness fell again all
over the earth.
