THE SONG OF HIAWATHA. 115 At the doorway of his wigwam Sat the ancient Arrow-maker, In the land of the Dacotahs, Making arrow-heads of jasper, 85 Arrow-heads of chalcedony.
At his side in all her beauty, Sat the lovely Minnehaha, Sat his daughter, Laughing Water, Plaiting mats of flags and rushes; 90 Of the past the old man's thoughts were, And the maiden's of the future.
He was thinking, as he sat there, Of the days when with such arrows He had struck the deer and bison, 95 On the Muskoday, th
...e meadow; Shot the wild goose, flying southward, On the wing, the clamorous Wawa; Thinking of the great war-parties, How they came to buy his arrows, 100 Could not fight without his arrows.
Ah, no more such noble warriors Could be found on earth as they were!
Now the men were all like women, Only used their tongues for weapons! 105 She was thinking of a hunter, Il6 THE SONG OF HIAWATHA.
From another tribe and country, Young and tall and very handsome, Who one morning, in the Spring-time, Came to buy her father's arrows, 1 10 Sat and rested in the wigwam, Lingered long about the doorway, Looking back as he departed.
