Take the horses and harness them with their back to the front, with their front to the back.” They said: “your path will lead nowhere.” And they said: “ He must be a fool, how shall we harness the horses with their backs to the front? How shall we continue? He then said: “If you can’t, give me one of the horses.” He unharnessed the horse and he harnessed it with its back to the front, with its head to the back. The horse jumped backwards and kept on like that. He went a bit, he went and said: “Do it like that. I will go there then. You go into the tall ghost’s house, I will go into the short ghost’s house. I will go into the house without windows, you will go into the house with windows.”

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.

He was also gleaming, his clothes were gleaming, they were both just as beautiful as the other. Then they looked–close by there was a large town. They went into this large town and there were rich people living there. The town gleamed. They went into this town and a beautiful woman was living there.

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.”

There lived a woman. She had four sons. Her children did not obey her, all day long they ran around, they played in the snow, from morning to night they did not help their mother at all. They would come home and let their mother dry the water on their shoes, the water on their coats, the water on their mittens. Such a life was hard for their mother. While she was living like that, she became ill and lay down. She was lying. Once she wanted to drink water. “Children, come here, give me water. My throat is dry, give me water.” She called her children many times, the children did not come. The eldest son said: “I have no shoes.” The second son said: “I have no hat.” The third son said: “I have no clothes.” But the youngest son said nothing. The mother called: “Come here to me, I need water. Bring and give me water. My tongue is dry. I want to drink.” But the children ran out of the house, they played for a long or a short time, they did not go into the house.
