Now there was a tiny fire there, and the old man was squatted by it chanting- and snapping- two long- feathers tog-ether in rhythm with his wild refrain. And in the corner was the same dark, limp heap, which seemed to drift near or farther away on the waves of the firelight. "It is well!" said the old man, rising-; "for already I have blown away the evil ones, that we be alone. And I see that thou hast brought blood from above to pay for that which is lost. " Taking from Pablo s hand the arrows..., still red-wet, he broke one over the fire and one he thrust upright in the hard earth at the maiden s feet. Then he rubbed his * Aspen. 194 Pablo s Deer Hunt. hands with ashes and laid them upon her breast, chanting-: "Blood, water of life, Come back in the brooks of the heart 1 Blood, water of life, Give it to drink again For the red field is dry And nothing grows. " As he rubbed and sang the maiden stirred and moved and sat up. And taking- the third arrow he put the notch to his lips and the barb to her side and drew with a strong- breath, and the buried shaft grew long and longer from her side, until it fell upon the ground.
