“My eekupa, what do you wish to see?” you said to me.
What I wish to see is the corn silk peeping out of the growing ear;
But what you wish to see is that naughty young man coming!

Here is a song that older girls sang to tease young men of the Dog Society who happened to be going by:
You young man of the Dog Society, you said to me,
“When I go east with a war party, you will hear news of me how brave I am!”
I have heard news of you;
When the fight was on, you ran and hid;
And you still think you are a brave young man!
