Srecuts] the swimmer manuscript 241 medicine men consulted to be an abbreviation of Gf'na a'^'ye'lrsai, a mythic kind of serpent which owes its name to its habit of imitating (a'"yc--h-'sGi = he imitates, Hab.) the bleat of a fawn ((a)Gi-na') so as to ensnare its mother. On hearing the bleating, the doe, believing her young calls her, hurries to the spot, and the mythic serpent catches the artless animal, by merely striking out its huge tongue, and swallows it. [The extraordinary "licking" powers of this monster is without any doubt the reason why it is being appealed to in this fonnula to come and lick or suck the wound.] The Lizard meant is the alligator lizard (Sceloporus undulatus) which has the habit of alternately puffing out and drawing in its throat, as though sucldng, when basldng in the sun. There is an obvious consistency in calHng upon these two animals, in accordance with their nature to suck the wound. The medicine is tobacco juice [ordinary chewing tobacco being used]. The medicine man recites tlio first paragraph while chewing the tobacco, and then applying his mouth to the wound, sucks out the poisonous matter or Dalo''ni, "yellow." Then, taking a fresh quid, he recites the second paragraph, and again sucks the wound in the same manner. The whole ceremony is then repeated, so as to make four suckings, which are said to be sufficient in ordinary cases. The medicine man holds the tobacco in his mouth wliile sucking, and does not, as might be supposed, suck out the poison first, and then apply the tobacco juice. Before chewing tobacco, as it is now used, was introduced by white traders, the medicine men probably used tso''laGay9''"li, Nicotiana rustica L., wild tobacco [which has now become so scarce with the Cherokee that it is only used in minute quantities in certain of the more important ceremonies. (See p. 75.)].
