Crested with great eagle-feathers,

Streaming upward, streaming outward.

“Well I know you, Hiawatha!”

Cried he in a voice of thunder,

In a tone of loud derision.

“Hasten back, O Shaugodaya!

Hasten back among the women,

Back to old Nokomis, Faint-heart!

I will slay you as you stand there,

As of old I slew her father!”
