"And the earth mist and the vapours of evening were glad at the voice of the earth worms, and looking earthward believed what they had said. AND THE EARTH MIST AND THE VAPOURS OF EVENING WERE GLAD AT THE VOICE OF THE EARTHWORMS AND LOOKING EARTHWARD BELIEVED WHAT THEY HAD SAID
 clouds were glad of their greeting, for they meet with companions seldom in the lonely heights of the sky. "But the vapours of evening said unto the earth-mist, 'What are those shapes that dare to move above us and to go where Nitcrana is and Huhenwazi?' "And the earth-mist said in answer unto the vapours of evening, 'It is only an earth-mist that has become mad and has left the warm and comfortable earth, and has in his madness thought that his place is with Huhenwazi and Nitcrana.' "'Once,' said the vapours of evening, 'there were clouds, but this was many and many a day ago, as our forefathers have said. Perhaps the mad one thinks he is the clouds.' "Then spake the earth-worms from the warm deeps of the mud, saying 'O earth-mist, thou art indeed the clouds, and there are no clouds but thou. And as for Huhenwazi and Nitcrana, I cannot see them, and therefore they are not high, and there are no mountains in the world but those that I cast up every morning out of the deeps of the mud. REETED THEM CALLING THEM BROTHERS AND THE CLOUDS WERE GLAD OF THEIR GREETING FOR THEY MEET WITH COMPANIONS SELDOM IN THE LONELY HEIGHTS OF THE SKY BUT THE VAPORS OF EVENING SAID UNTO THE EARTH MIST WHAT ARE THOSE SHAPES THAT DARE TO MOVE ABOVE US AND GO TO WHERE KNIT CHRANA IS AND HUEN WAZI AND THE EARTH MIST SAID IN ANSWER TO THE VAPORS OF EVENING IT IS ONLY AN EARTH MIST THAT HAS BECOME MAD AND HAS LEFT THE WARM AND COMFORTABLE EARTH AND HAS IN HIS MADNESS THOUGHT THAT HIS PLACE IS WITH HUENWASI AND NICRANA ONCE SAID THE VAPORS OF EVENING THERE WERE CLOUDS BUT THIS WAS MANY AND MANY A DAY AGO AS OUR FOREFATHERS HAVE SAID PERHAPS THE MAD ONE THINKS HE IS THE CLOUDS THEN SPAKE THE EARTHWORMS FROM THE WARM DEEPS OF THE MUD SAYING O EARTHMEST THOU ART INDEED THE CLOUDS AND THERE ARE NO CLOUDS BUT THOU AND AS FOR HUUN WAZI AND NIKRANA I CANNOT SEE THEM AND THEREFORE THEY ARE NOT HIGH AND THERE ARE NO MOUNTAINS IN THE WORLD BUT THOSE THAT I CAST UP EVERY MORNING OUT OF THE DEEPS OF THE MUD
