WORDS beautiful daughters eldest gentle nothing rawhide
3. There lived in the village a great chief who had three "A". Their mother had been long dead. One of these was much younger than the others. She was very "B" and gentle and well beloved by all, and for that reason her older sisters were very jealous of her charms and treated her very cruelly. They clothed her in rags that she might be ugly; and they cut off her long black hair; and they burned her face with coals from the fire that she might be scarred and disfigured. And they lied to their father, telling him that she had done these things herself. But the young girl was patient and kept her "C" heart and went gladly about her work.
4. Like other girls, the chief's two "D" daughters tried to win Strong Wind. One evening, as the day went down, they walked on the shore with Strong Wind's sister and waited for his coming. Soon he came home from his day's work, drawing his sled. And his sister asked as usual, "Do you see him?" And each one, lying, answered "Yes." And she asked, "Of what is his shoulder strap made?" And each, guessing, said, "Of "E"." Then they entered the tent where they hoped to see Strong Wind eating his supper; and when he took off his coat and his moccasins they could see them, but more than these they saw "F". And Strong Wind knew that they had lied, and he kept himself from their sight, and they went home dismayed.
