Wabigoon, coming nearer, put both arms around his lovely little sister and kissed her again and again. "Rod, you're a hero!" he cried softly, gripping his comrade's hand. "God bless you!" Rod blushed, and to restrain further effusions closed his eyes. During the next quarter of an hour Minnetaki prepared some coffee and meat, while both Mukoki and Wabi cared for the sledge-dogs outside.

And the same spirit that created these images also produced those poetical effusions, the same spirit of pious belief, of deep devotion, of heavenly longing.
