The time came to gather berries, they went to gather berries. Across the sea. They went and went. They came to a wooded land, full of berries. They went with full buckets, they filled the buckets. Suddenly one girl came, looked, and saw wood grouse nestlings. She saw the wood-grouse nestlings and the older sisters said: “Come one, there are seven nestlings, let’s take all seven nestlings. We’ll cook them.” The wood grouse had taken wing and flown off. The girls went and roasted the wings of these nestlings in a pot. They ate them up and the wood grouse flew back and started to search, but there were no nestlings. The seven girls had cooked and eaten them.

What am I to do?” Then the heavenly father turned to it: “How so?” He then made a wind: “Let everybody in the middle of the Ob die.” The seven girt down in the boot and got ready to push off. It was quiet, a stillness prevailed. They went as far as the middle of the Ob, sat down in the boat and got ready to push off. It was quiet, a stillness prevailed. They got as far as the middle of the Ob and then a strong wind arose and they all died. The wood grouse was happy and content and went along the path with songs and tales. The girls had all died.
