Tales and Traditions of the Eskimo - Title Page Translation. The wicked little Kukook imakayah hayah, imakayah hahhayah uses to say, . . . . I am going to leave the country . . . . in a large ship . . . . for that sweet little woman. . . . . I'll try to get some beads . . . . of those that look like boiled ones. . . . . Then when I've gone abroad, . . . . I shall return again. . . . . My nasty little relatives . . . . I'll call them all to me . . . . and give them a good thrashing . . . . with a big rope's end. . . . . Then I'll go to marry, . . . . taking two at once. . . . . That darling little creature . . . . shall only wear clothes of the spotted seal-skins, . . . . and the other little pet . . . . shall have clothes of the young hooded seals. . . . . MUTUAL NITH-SONG BETWEEN SAVDLADT AND PULANGITSISSOK. (From East Greenland.) Savdlat. The south, the south, oh the south yonder. . . When settling on the midland coast I met Pulangitsissok, . . . who had grown stout and fat with eating halibut. . . . Those people from the midland coast they don't know speaking, . . . because they are ashamed of their speech. . . . Stupid p. 68 they are besides. . . . Their speech is not alike, . . . some speak like the northern, some like the southern; . . . therefore we can't make out their talk. Pulangitsissok. There was a time when Savdlat wished that I should be a good kayaker, . . . that I could take a good load on my kayak. . . . Many years ago some day he wanted me to put a heavy load on my kayak. . . . (This happened at the time) when Savdlat had his kayak tied to mine (for fear of being capsized). . . . Then he could carry plenty upon his kayak. . . . When I had to tow thee, and thou didst cry most pitiful, . . . and thou didst grow afeared, . . . and nearly wast upset, . . . and hadst to keep thy hold by help of my kayak strings. A SONG FRON SANERUT. (South Greenland.) I behold yon land of Nunarsuit; . . the mountaintops on its south side are wrapped in clouds; . . it slopes towards the south, . . towards Usuarsuk. . . What couldst thou expect in such a miserable place? . . . All its surroundings being shrouded with ice, . . not before late in the spring can people from there go travelling. A SONG FROM ARSUT. (South Greenland.) The great Koonak mount yonder south, . . I do behold it; . . the great Koonak mount yonder south, . . I regard it; . . the shining brightness (clouds ?) yonder south, . . I contemplate. . . Outside of p. 69 Koonak . . it is expanding, . . the same that Koonak towards the seaside . . doth quite encompass. . .
