“After my brothers arrive,” she said, “drive the herd home. In your herd there is a reindeer, you have not yet seen it with your own eyes. Drive the herd home when my brothers arrive. You will see this reindeer with your eyes. Its horns are so small, as big as a forest. Such a reindeer. You feed it to them as food, for a feast. You will have a reindeer to skin.” He kissed her. As it was said, so it will be. “To catch that reindeer,” she said, “on the woman’s sled there is a lasso, the lasso ring is made of iron. You will take the iron lasso, start to throw it, and my brothers will help to tie it up. They will skin it on the boards of the house.”

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.

Once when it got light in the morning, the tsar ordered: “Bring my daughter’s ring, tie it up on top, on the top of the tree, whoever gets to that ring and takes the ring, will be my daughter’s bridegroom.” Then Ivanushka thought: “I will mount my bad horse and will go there, too.” Ivanushka led his horse out and his old father said: “So, and where are you going on such a bad horse?” Ivanushka mounted his mare and set off.

Fine. He lay down. The old man fell asleep. Then in the morning the young hunter woke him: “Grandfather, get up, we’ll have tea.” Oh, how shameful, he put out his face and the other was alive again, he had no scar at all. He was completely whole again. They drank tea. “You then, grandfather, prepare fire-wood and water. I, in turn,” he said, “will go hunting again.” So he set off, let him go, he went the whole day. He left in the morning and returned in the evening when it was getting dark. The other had prepared firewood and melted water. Everything was ready by the time the grandson came back. Towards evening he came back for the third time. He was carrying even more than the day before. He had killed animals, was carrying so much. They were hanging from his belt, it was all full. He carried them on his shoulders, however many animals there were–sable, squirrel. Once again they ate, drank, and the young man skinned the animals and hung them up to dry. Once again they went to bed.

It split in two and the three demons in iron coats leapt out from it. Once again they bound the lad, the poor devil, again they tied him up, again they carried him off. They dragged him for a short or a long time and came out into the clearing. In the middle of the clearing stood a house. He thought: “They’re taking me there. They’ll destroy me there. My brother has a name, but he won’t likely come to help me. Why was he given the name, War-Arrow Spirit, Death-Arrow Spirit? I don’t think he’ll help me.” At the same time his brother woke up at home and jumped up. “My brother,” he said, “has gotten into big trouble, has gotten into great misfortune. He’s thinking of me.” He got dressed, leapt out, and set off for there. He looked: his brother was being dragged. His arms and legs were bound. He succeeded in getting there again. A shaman’s knife was standing in the far corner of the house against the wall. Its blade was seven spans wide. It glittered, its blade was made of non-rusting iron. He grabbed this dagger and crawled onto the firewood shelf. He crawled up. They threw his brother into the house.

He took it and poured it there, into the stone cauldron. He ordered the demon to lie on his back. He lay down on his back. “So, open one eye, now I’ll do your eye with lead.”

Then they tied the sleds, harnessed up all the reindeer well, loaded what was necessary and set off. The Por woman said: “When you come back, don’t just pass by my house, let’s go together.” The Vajnin woman said: “Fine, why shouldn’t we go back together? Just like we went together, we’ll come back together.” They set off back to home, arrived home, lived for a long or a short time, then the Vajnin woman started back. When she went back she called to her friend and said: “If you don’t go, I’m going back, I’m going back for keeps.” Little bells were attached to her sled, to the Vajnin woman’s sled, around the neck of the reindeer, they rang out. She waited for her friend, then set off slowly. She glanced back, but her friend had already gone on the white reindeer and had harnessed some sort of mice and worms, they were pulling the sled in the opposite direction. This time on the road back she made a rope of hay and tied the mice. So she went along behind her, behind the Vajnin woman.

There lived old man fox. Old man fox. He went along. He was looking for food, for something to eat. Lying in one spot, from where should he take food? He lived alone at home for a long or a short time and thought: “Once I had a friend. My friend was old man bull. His house is buried, he never comes out. I’ll go to see whether he is dead or alive.” Well, fine. He went there and looked. He was apparently alive. He ran around the house, shouting: “Are you there, old man bull?” “It’s me, it’s me. Is that you, fox?” “It’s me, it’s me. Don’t you have the strength to come out?” “I’d like to come out, but I don’t have the strength to come out.” The fox said: “From here I’ll dig on the outside with my hands and feet. I’ll keep on digging the earth and you kick and thrust from inside. With the strength of two persons we’ll somehow make a hole.” They dug, they made noise, they worked hard. Old man bull came out. He was completely worn out. As was necessary, old man bull tidied himself, wiping off the dirt or whatever. He ate a bit of grass or something.
