He came to the river ice and lay down behind the bow. Arrows shot off from there rebounded off his bow, flew off, they did not pierce the mammoth bow, did not shatter it, they rebounded off the bow. Arrows flew over him with a whistle. But he cut spring openings in the warriors with the arrows he shot. He destroyed them like autumn banks, like water beating on the embankment, that is how they fall. Afterwards, when they were finished off, three iron demons appeared again. He did not have time to shoot an arrow, they turned into stones. What should he do? He went up again, struck the stone block with the thick end of the arrow and the stone block split in two.

Well, fine. They went and went and went, together with the tiger. They moved and moved across the ground. The ground was already coming to an end and there was no squirrel. “Yesterday,” said the tiger to the wolf, “you deceived me. Yesterday you said there were a lot of squirrels here. She has a lot of children and we want to eat. What are we, poor things, going to eat? What shall we do not, we have to eat. We’ll have to fight. We’ll have to fight. You have deceived me.” The animals threw themselves at one another. For a long time, for a short time they threw themselves at one another. But the squirrel’s home was there on top. The children were there, too. Then they said to their mother: “The wolf and the tiger are fighting.” Then the mother said: “Father said yesterday that the wolf and the tiger live on the ground to eat people. They eat us. Don’t go outside, sit at home.” And the mother left.
