To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


For this purpose, at day-dawn, they are dressed in bark hats of a conical form, and strips of the same article fastened together about their waists. On their hats lightning is represented. The Giant-god is said to wear such a hat when he appears to reprove the recreant Sioux. The dancers also wear earrings of bark.
The host has his fire lighted by daybreak, and the unfailing kettle on. In it he places a piece of buffalo meat. He then seats himself, to smoke until his visiters arrive.
Each one,
...as he enters, sits down and smokes, too ; and this continues until the water begins to boil, when the dancing commences in earnest.
It is no child's play. Every limb, every muscle, every nerve, must be put in requisition. They must sing, they must shout, they must laugh loud and long, as they jump, and twist, and attitudinize in every possible manner. The one who makes the most noise is the most devout worshipper of the Giant, and each one tries to outdo the other in the use of his legs and lungs.
