To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Certain it is that it was to the sun alone the Sioux warrior appealed, by devout sacrifice, fast- ing or feast, in his most dire dilemmas and when about to engage in his most desperate enterprises. [222] THE LAST GREAT SUN DANCE And since plainly the sun is all-powerful to give or to deny, the maker of heat and light, the giver of the generous warmth and the shedder of the copious tears that makes the grass to grow that fattens alike the buffalo and the ponies, and that, later, serves to ripen ...the wild plum and the sarvis berry, the maize, the gooseberry, and the turnip, why indeed should not Sioux sufferers supplicate his charity and lar- gess, and Sioux adventurers into perils beseech his aid?
Of the inner significance of the various ceremonies incident to the dance we know little.
Certain, however, it is that no cultsman, civilised or pagan, ever bent before the throne of his spiritual allegiance with more of profound faith and reverence, or took more pains to purify the body by cleansing and to exalt the spirit by fasting before supplicating and sacrificing to his deity, than did the Sioux Sun Dancer.
