“Ho! elder brother, you give me pain,” said Otter. Big Turtle said, “Why do you seek me?”
“I did not seek you. As I desired food, we have met each other,” said Otter.
“No, you wished to join those who desire to kill me, so you sought me,” said Big Turtle.
“O elder brother! O elder brother! O elder brother! I pray to you. I have not sought you,” he said.
“I will by no means let you go from my mouth,” said Big Turtle.
“Ho! elder brother! How long before you will open your mouth and let me go?” said Otter.
“When the Thunder God has come back, I will let you go.”
“Halloo!” shouted Otter to the people. “He will let me go when the Thunder God comes back. Halloo! He bites me between the legs. Halloo!” said he.
“He says that he is bitten,” said the people. “He says that he is bitten between the legs. Hit tent skins for him.”
They made the tent skins resound by hitting them.
