None of it had Lox. Kusk ate it all. The next day the pair went to dine with Blue Jay. Blue Jay said, "Wait till I get our food." Then he ran out on a bough of a tree which spread over a river, and in a minute fished out a large salmon. "Truly," thought Lox, "that is easy to do, and I can do it." So the next day he invited the Blue Jay and Crane to feed with him.
"Oh, I heard it and I felt it and it came thump upon my crown!" "Then I will run down hill with you," cried Chicker Ricker. So they ran and they ran and they ran. Soon they met Hen Ren. "The sky is tumbling down, Hen Ren!" cried Chicker Ricker. "Who told you, Chicker Ricker?" "Oh, Fox Lox!" "Who told you, Fox Lox?" "Oh, I heard it and I felt it and it came thump upon my crown!
Run down hill with me where you will be quite safe," said Fox Lox. "That I will!" cried Turk Lurk. So they ran and they ran and they ran. Soon they met Dove Love. "The sky is tumbling down, Dove Love!" cried Turk Lurk. "Who told you, Turk Lurk?" "Oh, Gander Lander!" "Who told you, Gander Lander?" "Oh, Goose Loose!" "Who told you, Goose Loose?" "Oh, Drake Lake!" "Who told you, Drake Lake?"
Now it came to pass one day that as Lox sat on a log a bear came by, who, being a sociable fellow, sat down by him and smoked a pipe. While they were talking a gull flew over, and inadvertently offered to Lox what he considered, or affected to consider, as a great insult.
But in the Passamaquoddy versions it is the dreaded and mysterious Lox, who appears to be a species of Lynx or Wolverine. The Lox is said, by trustworthy white travelers as well as Indians, to follow hunting parties for weeks, inspired apparently only by an incredible mania for mischief, much like that of a monkey or a revengeful savage, but guided by remarkable intelligence.
I cannot give in full all the adventures of Lox. I may, however, observe one thing of great importance. Lox, in these tales, is the Evil Principle, that is, a giant by birth. His two feet in this story are male and female; they talk as if they were human. "Foot with foot begot Of that wise Jotun, A six-headed son."
You know, my dear sister, that I always give you the best because you are blind." My grandfather said that after this Mrs. Bear kept her eyes open on people in two ways. And it always made us laugh, that did. The Spirit of Mischief in these stories is sometimes Lox, the Wolverine; at others the Raccoon, or the Badger. Their adventures are interchangeable.
The setting the blind women together by the ears, and the dashing of hot pudding, soup, or water in their faces, is another form of a Lox story, which occurs again in the Kalevala. But the entire spirit of the tricks is that of Lox, as those of Lox are like those of Loki. The Rev.
Well, Master Lox, seeing them fighting in a great rage, burst out laughing, so that he actually burst himself, and fell down dead with delight. It was a regular side-splitter. When my grandfather said that we always laughed. In the morning, when the women came out, there lay a dead devil at the door.
Of the Surprising and Singular Adventures of two Water Fairies who were also Weasels, and how they each became the Bride of a Star. Including the Mysterious and Wonderful Works of Lox, the Great Indian Devil, who rose from the Dead. Wee-zig-yik-keseyook. "Of old times." Far back in the forest, by a brook, dwelt two young men, Abistanooch, the Marten, and Team, the Moose.
