Is the last day of my conflict,

Is the last day of my fasting.

You will conquer and o’ercome me;

Turning to Nokomis, pathetically:

Dear old Nokomis,

Make a bed for me to lie in,

Where the rain may fall upon me,

Where the sun may come and warm me;

Lay me in the earth, and make it

Soft and loose and light above me.
