Answer 1

1.   Water-beetle darted in every direction over  

the surface of the water but could find no  

firm place to rest.

2.   Earth was afterward fastened to the sky  

with four cords, but no one remembers  

who did it.

3.  When all was water, the animals were  

above in Galûñ’lati, beyond the arch;  

but it was very much crowded, and they  

wanted more room.

4.  Water-beetle dived to the bottom and came  

up with some soft mud, which began to grow  

and spread on every side until it became the  

island that we call Earth.

 5.  The animals wondered what was below  

the water, and at last Dâyuni’si, "Beaver’s  

Grandchild," the little Water-Beetle, offered

to go and see if it could learn.
