A good nation i will make live.this the nation above has said.they have given me the power to make over.
Now suddenly there was nothing but a world of cloud, and we three were there alone in the middle of a great white plain with snowy hills and mountains staring at us; and it was very still; but there were whispers.
Whether it happened so or not i do not know; but if you think about it you can see that it is true.
And if the great fear had not come upon me, as it did, and forced me to do my duty, i might have been less good to the people than some man who had never dreamed at all, even with the memory of so great a vision in me.
So i took the bright red stick and at the center of the nation's hoop i thrust it in the earth.
I looked about me once again, and suddenly the dancing horses without number changed into animals of every kind and into all the fowls that are, and these fled back to the four quarters of the world from whence the horses came, and vanished.
And i saw that the sacred hoop of my people as one of many hoops that made one circle.
I had a vision with which i might have saved my people, but i had not the strength to do it.
I cured with the power that came through me.
After the horse dance was over, it seemed that i was above the ground and did not touch it when i walked.
You see, i had been riding with the storm clouds, and had come to earth as rain, and it was drought that i had killed with the power that the six grandfathers gave me.
When i got back to my father and mother and was sitting up there in our tepee, my face was still all puffed and my legs and arms were badly swollen; but i felt good all over and wanted to get right up and run around.
