The little ones have nothing of which to make their bodies. 178. Three-deer replied: I am a person of whom the little ones may well make their bodies, 179. I am a god who has power to resist death. 180. When the little ones make of me their bodies, 181. They also shall have power to resist death, as they travel the path of life. 182. Even among the gods 183. There is not one who is able to see my path. 184. When the little ones make of me their bodies, 185. Even the gods 186. Shall not be able to see their path, as they travel the path of life. 187. Even among the gods 188. There is not one who can stand in my way to prevent my going. 189. When the little ones make of me their bodies, 190. Even the gods 191. Shall not be able to stand in their way to prevent their going. 192. Moreover, I have been able to bring myself to see old age. 193. When the little ones make of me their bodies, 194. They also shall have the power to bring themselves to see old age. 195. I have been able to bring myself to the calm and peaceful days. 196. When the little ones make of me their bodies, 197. They also shall be able to bring themselves to the calm and peaceful days, as they travel the path of life.
