Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Legends of Manitou, and Other Poems ´I will leave here my bride, young Zecana, "While I hunt for the sheep you desire, ´Let no evil reach out for her garment "If you fear Taingaro´s swift ire." ´Put your hand in the white man´s, Zecana, "He has sworn you are safe in his keeping; ´Trust this friend of the tribe and obey him - "Now, why is my little one weeping?" "She is timid and young, my Zecana, "To preserve her bright youth is my care; "And I bid her still form of her tresses "Two whorls like our young maidens wear." "In our village at home, my Zecana "Is free as the maidens unwed, "And of´t she stops in the grinding "Or baking of ´piki´ (our bread)," "And rushes aloft to the housetop, "Where she gazes for hours, away "To the orchards and cornfields below her, "To the desert in painted array." "Tis to give her new joy I have brought her "To this garden of Manitou, "Held sacred for healing water "And for rocks of a scarlet hue."
