Once there lived a muskrat. There lived a muskrat, spring came. In the sun at the cliff ice floes were floating. The spring water had come. It had to take its children. It took the nest with the children and put it out into the warmth of the sun, into the sun. It put it out and sat down at the edge of the water, it was sitting at the edge of the water, it was sitting next to its children in the nest. They were still young, naked animals. An old flat ice floe floated past. The muskrat said to old man ice floe: “Grandfather, farther away from the banks, farther away! Don’t shatter my children’s home.” Old man ice floe came nearer on purpose and cut off the muskrat’s legs. “Oh, the devil take it, old man ice-floe, I wish you no luck. There will be sunshine and you will melt away, we won’t see you anymore. You have wounded me now and left me without any legs. I have become an invalid.”

The sun heard that, the sun said: “If you’re going to fight, fight yourselves, what have I got to do with it?” Then the musk-rat answered again: “You, cloud, I wish you no luck. From the Urals a windy day will come and scatter you. We won’t see you anymore. It will tear you to bits: “If you’re going to fight, fight yourselves, what have I got to do with it?” But the musk-rat said to the sun: “Mother Sun, I wish you no luck. There will be a cloudy day and it will cover you and we won’t see you anymore.” Well, the cloud heard this and it will tear you to pieces.” Old man Ural heard this. Old man Ural said: “If you’re going to fight, fight yourselves, you’re swearing at me because I’m old.” The muskrat said again to old man Ural: “Old man Ural, I wish you no luck. Old man fox will soil your head, you know.” Old man fox heard this, old man fox said: “If you’re going to fight, fight yourselves, why do you bother me?” The muskrat was offended again. “Fox, I wish you no luck,” it said, “the Khanty people will come with bow and arrows and shoot you with the arrows, you’ll drop and not even know it.” But in the house there there lived an old Khanty man and woman. The old man said to the old woman: “Give me some skin to wear. Maybe an animal has fallen into the trap. I’ve got this feeling.” She said: “Get dressed and go.”

He got there, came up and shot with the arrow. It hit the fox, it dropped. He picked it up, cut its throat, walked home. “Wife,” he said, “I found you a skin now for a collar. For myself I’ve found a visor for the eyes. Spring will come, I’ll tie up the eyes and the spring wind won’t blow through them.” The fox was really good for the wind.
