• recipient: Pau-Puk-Keewis “‘Pishnekuh!’ cried Pau-Puk-Keewis, ‘Pishnekuh! my brothers!’ said he, ‘Change me to a brant with plumage, With a shining neck and feathers, Make me large, and make me larger, Ten times larger than the others.’ Straightway to a brant they changed him, With two huge and dusky pinions, With a bosom smooth and rounded, With a bill like two great paddles, Made him larger than the others, Ten times larger than the largest, Just as, shouting from the forest, On the shore stood Hiawatha.”
