Bro<strong>the</strong>rs !<br />

I do take to-day<br />

For <strong>the</strong> last your parting h<strong>and</strong> ;<br />

Hayo-went-ha goes away<br />

Goes he to <strong>the</strong> Better L<strong>and</strong> ;<br />

He can see a glory shine<br />

You may see not, <strong>and</strong> <strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong>nce<br />

Comes <strong>the</strong> warning <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> sign,<br />

Hayo-went-ha hastens hence.<br />

Iiiigorio<br />

<strong>the</strong> Good<br />

May his Spirit with you dwell ;<br />

Bro<strong>the</strong>rs ! noble Bro<strong>the</strong>rhood !<br />

OKGUE HONWE, fare you well.<br />

Be you by my counsels led,<br />

Keep my precepts every one ;<br />

Hayo-went-ha, he has said,<br />

Hayo-went-ha he is done.
