on high, Red Man, thou Wizard, thou Penetrator!
What has become a ghost is merely Heat. Now thou hast quickly
come and pushed the important thing away. Thou powerful wizard,
quickly hast thou made him get up. Relief has been caused, (and)
not for one night (only, but forever). Thou hast come to make it so

explanation
[This formula is for the same purpose as No. 24, page 201.
The cause, medicine used, application, and treatment are likewise
identical. It appears from Mr. Mooney's notes that this formula
was very carelessly written in the original and that he reconstructed
it. It is not possible to state exactly in how far the emendations are
Mr. Mooney's.]

Now, then! Ha, in the Great Water in the Night Land thou art
staying. Yellow Killdee Bird. Now thou hast arisen, facing us.
Where the Yellow is, thou hast come to fan it away with thy two
(wings). Relief will forthwith and continuously be caused. Sharply!
