"If I may, Matoaka; if I live we shall see each other again."
What had Wansutis meant? "I thank thee, little Sister," he answered gently, "for thy loving thought and for the journey thou hast taken. Before thou earnest my heart was low, for I said to myself: how can I go without bidding farewell to Matoaka; yet how can I send a message that will bring her here in time?" "Go!" she exclaimed. "Where wilt thou go?" "Home to England.

"Knowest thou it not? Matoaka, Little Snow Feather. 'Come, Snow Feather, it cries, 'come out and run with me and toss me up into the air."
