It was evening time when the seven
warriors came to the spirit land.
The spirits had already begun their dances.
Many spirits were gathered at the stomp
ground.
As they were dancing, the warriors saw the
Daughter of the Sun
dancing in the outer ring of dancers.
The warriors were prepared to make the capture of
the young girl.
She continued to dance around the fire and one of
the warriors struck
her with his sourwood stick that each warrior was
given by the little people.
Contiuing to dance, the next warrior struck
her.
The seventh time she came around the circle the
last warrior
struck her with his stick and she went
down.
They put her in a box, shut the lid, and started
their journey home.Received
