"Leave me," cried Manabozho, for it was he, "leave me. Let me be quiet."
The woman still begged him to protect her, and Manabozho, at length, said, "Go that way, and you shall be safe."
Hardly had she disappeared when the husband, who had discovered the hole by which his wife had descended, came on the scene.
"Tell me," said he to Manabozho, "where has the woman gone?"
"Leave me," cried Manabozho, "don't trouble me."
"Tell me," said the man, "where is the woman?"
Manabozho was silent, and the husband, at last getting angry, abused him with all his might.
"The woman went that way," said Manabozho at last. "Run after her, but you shall never catch her, and you shall be called Gizhigooke (day sun), and the woman shall be called Tibikgizis (night sun)."
So the man went on running after his wife to the west, but he has never caught her, and he pursues her to this day.
