He was at Kenek. He always sat in front of the sweathouse exit. He always sat in front of the sweathouse exit. The sun was far downriver. He had finished making his fire. He sat before the exit. That is where he always sat. He had a flute under the ridge cover. When the sun was far downriver, he always beat his hair dry. When it was right in the middle of summer, it was at the height of summer, he did so. This is what he did: he was always sorry for the people who would live like that. That is why he was constantly sorry as it began to be evening. So he sang on account of that. He always played the flute on account of that. He took out his flute and sang on account of that.
