  Athapascan ONCE Fox, when very hungry, was travelling through the country. All at once he saw a goose with many goslings. Fox ran after them. As he ran he sang, “I shall have your tender breasts before I go to sleep; I shall have your tender breasts before I go to sleep.” As Fox ran toward them, the geese came to water and plunged in. Fox followed slowly along the edge of the water. When he saw he could not get the geese, Fox became so angry he turned red all over—all except the tip of his tail. |
