The Moon formed the female as Wee-suck-ā-jāāk did the male, hence the reason of the periodical return of their sickness with that of the Moon, "as also among the sluts" (bitches). Hence also all women are forbidden, when they go out from the calls of nature, and that one in particular, to look at the moon while thus employed. Those who are thus forgetful, ignorant or obstinate immediately find the effect by the return.
I should have said that he bruised the stone to pieces, although a great part of it was already formed.
For the white (I believe it was the Moon again), he made a partner for him of one of his ribs and another piece, which he wrapped in a handkerchief and laid beside him saying, "This, by the time thou risest, shall be a full grown woman and shall be thy companion."

[Wee-suck-ā-jāāk Travels the Earth, Has a Son, Becomes a Woman]
And then [he] set off travelling in the Earth. He took a partner to himself by whom he had a son. This soon got to man's estate, but had a great aversion to the female sex, which gave his parents a great deal of anxiety. All their trouble, all their remonstrances, were to no effect. At last the father bethought of a plan in which he was sure of success.
[He] transformed himself into a most beautiful woman. And when the son was returned from his hunting, "Well son!" said the mother, "Here is a young and handsome woman we have procured merrily for thee. Does she please thee?"
Her charms were so great the young man immediately became extremely fond of her. But this, in the end, became the source of much trouble to both parents—and of disgrace to the father particularly. The mother became jealous and vexed on her son's account that he should so [impose], and [do] many shameful things to her husband.
Here follows a train of stories, the most indecent and shameful and sometimes obscene that one can well imagine. But these people are yet, so far as regards their faculties, in a state of nature. Everything appears reasonable and natural and must be very gross and palpable indeed when they do not give credit to [it].
