on him and he says

"oh, it depends how

the spirit moves me according

"to what I see in the world when

the child is born.

"On the day of your brother's

birth, I looked out through

"the hole in my teepee and

I saw a coyote running

"and that is why he is named

running coyote.

"And on the day

of your sister's birth

light rain falling
