Ne osh im aun
Ne way be naun.
These are expressions uttered on sliding a carved stick down snow banks, or over a glazed surface of ice, in the appropriate season; and they may be rendered with nearly literal exactness, thus:
My sliding stick
I send quick—quick.
Not less accurate in the rhyme, but at lines of six and eight feet, which might perhaps be exhibited unbroken, is the following couplet of a war song:
Au pit she Mon e tög
Ne mud wa wa wau we ne gög.
The Spirit on high,
Repeats my warlike name.
