00:00:00.810 --> 00:00:04.320 align:middle line:90%
Sometimes Coyote is Pehrru.

00:00:04.320 --> 00:00:06.480 align:middle line:90%
Sometimes Pehrru is Coyote.

00:00:06.480 --> 00:00:10.650 align:middle line:84%
Sometimes they're one
and the same person.

00:00:10.650 --> 00:00:16.470 align:middle line:84%
This one's this one's about
Pehrru's wonderful kettle.

00:00:16.470 --> 00:00:21.630 align:middle line:84%
One day Pehrru was
cooking at his camp.

00:00:21.630 --> 00:00:25.800 align:middle line:84%
He had a kettle of meat and
corn which he had just taken out

00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:28.110 align:middle line:90%
of the ashes and coals.

00:00:28.110 --> 00:00:32.250 align:middle line:84%
The food had been buried all
day, cooking all day long.

00:00:32.250 --> 00:00:37.050 align:middle line:84%
And he put the meat and corn
on top of the ashes and coal.

00:00:37.050 --> 00:00:41.010 align:middle line:84%
Just then, a troop of
sandahlrrutitra, soldiers,

00:00:41.010 --> 00:00:42.120 align:middle line:90%
came along.

00:00:42.120 --> 00:00:45.510 align:middle line:84%
They saw Pehrru
busy at his cooking,

00:00:45.510 --> 00:00:49.440 align:middle line:84%
and they saw the kettle, and
they smelled the good food.

00:00:49.440 --> 00:00:51.540 align:middle line:84%
The kettle was
really boiling away.

00:00:51.540 --> 00:00:55.270 align:middle line:84%
They could see that, but
they could see no fire.

00:00:55.270 --> 00:00:58.380 align:middle line:84%
Guwahdze, Pehrru, the
soldiers said in greeting.

00:00:58.380 --> 00:01:01.440 align:middle line:90%
Dahwah eh, Pehrru said.

00:01:01.440 --> 00:01:03.780 align:middle line:90%
He kept on being busy.

00:01:03.780 --> 00:01:07.050 align:middle line:84%
You are busy with your
cooking, the soldiers asked.

00:01:07.050 --> 00:01:09.150 align:middle line:90%
Hah uh, Pehrru answered, yes.

00:01:09.150 --> 00:01:12.210 align:middle line:84%
The soldiers were very curious
about the boiling kettle

00:01:12.210 --> 00:01:13.080 align:middle line:90%
of stew.

00:01:13.080 --> 00:01:15.300 align:middle line:84%
They marveled at
how it was boiling,

00:01:15.300 --> 00:01:18.780 align:middle line:84%
and there was no fire
that they could see.

00:01:18.780 --> 00:01:22.590 align:middle line:84%
Your stew is boiling
beautifully, the soldiers said.

00:01:22.590 --> 00:01:26.790 align:middle line:84%
It is boiling, Pehrru
agreed matter of factly.

00:01:26.790 --> 00:01:30.940 align:middle line:84%
Finally, curiosity
getting the best of them,

00:01:30.940 --> 00:01:35.010 align:middle line:84%
the soldiers asked, how
is it that the stew is

00:01:35.010 --> 00:01:39.840 align:middle line:84%
boiling when there is no
fire under your kettle?

00:01:39.840 --> 00:01:43.740 align:middle line:84%
And Pehrru, noting their
overly anxious curiosity said,

00:01:43.740 --> 00:01:48.210 align:middle line:84%
oh, it's just that's the
kind of kettle it is.

00:01:48.210 --> 00:01:51.540 align:middle line:90%
It boils like that by itself.

00:01:51.540 --> 00:01:56.100 align:middle line:84%
That must be a wonderful
kettle, the soldiers marveled.

00:01:56.100 --> 00:01:58.110 align:middle line:90%
Oh, yes, it is.

00:01:58.110 --> 00:02:00.960 align:middle line:90%
It's quite useful, he said.

00:02:00.960 --> 00:02:03.510 align:middle line:84%
And the soldiers talked
among themselves.

00:02:03.510 --> 00:02:05.700 align:middle line:84%
And without wanting
to be too eager, they

00:02:05.700 --> 00:02:09.660 align:middle line:84%
said to Pehrru, compadre,
do you think you can give us

00:02:09.660 --> 00:02:11.850 align:middle line:90%
that wonderful kettle?

00:02:11.850 --> 00:02:13.770 align:middle line:90%
And Pehrru kept on being busy.

00:02:13.770 --> 00:02:18.720 align:middle line:84%
And then he turned to them, and
he said, tsah dzee wah guwah

00:02:18.720 --> 00:02:19.860 align:middle line:90%
nehwadi shrouwah drumanoh.

00:02:19.860 --> 00:02:23.610 align:middle line:84%
I don't think there is any
way I can give it to you.

00:02:23.610 --> 00:02:26.100 align:middle line:84%
The kettle was
really boiling away.

00:02:26.100 --> 00:02:29.520 align:middle line:84%
The smell of the meat
and corn was delicious.

00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:32.550 align:middle line:84%
Indeed, it was a
marvelous kettle.

00:02:32.550 --> 00:02:36.750 align:middle line:84%
They had to have it, and
the soldiers said, well,

00:02:36.750 --> 00:02:39.180 align:middle line:90%
let us buy it from you.

00:02:39.180 --> 00:02:42.780 align:middle line:84%
And Pehrru said, I don't
think I can sell it to you.

00:02:42.780 --> 00:02:45.030 align:middle line:90%
It's a favorite of mine.

00:02:45.030 --> 00:02:47.640 align:middle line:84%
But then he saw that
the soldiers were

00:02:47.640 --> 00:02:50.520 align:middle line:84%
ready to bargain their
treasures for the kettle,

00:02:50.520 --> 00:02:53.220 align:middle line:84%
and he pretended to be
less reluctant to part

00:02:53.220 --> 00:02:54.240 align:middle line:90%
with his kettle.

00:02:54.240 --> 00:02:57.570 align:middle line:84%
And they bargained, the
soldiers making an offer,

00:02:57.570 --> 00:03:01.320 align:middle line:84%
and Pehrru holding back, the
soldiers raising their price

00:03:01.320 --> 00:03:03.660 align:middle line:84%
and Pehrru seeming to
be holding back less

00:03:03.660 --> 00:03:06.010 align:middle line:84%
and less until
the soldiers said,

00:03:06.010 --> 00:03:10.020 align:middle line:84%
we'll give you your weight
in gold for the kettle.

00:03:10.020 --> 00:03:12.900 align:middle line:84%
And Pehrru, pretending
as sorrowful reluctance,

00:03:12.900 --> 00:03:16.110 align:middle line:84%
said, you have made
me a generous offer

00:03:16.110 --> 00:03:18.540 align:middle line:84%
for my beloved,
wonderful kettle.

00:03:18.540 --> 00:03:20.640 align:middle line:90%
But I think it is a fair price.

00:03:20.640 --> 00:03:23.340 align:middle line:84%
You can have it,
and the soldiers

00:03:23.340 --> 00:03:25.680 align:middle line:84%
brought Pehrru his
weight in gold.

00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:30.200 align:middle line:84%
And they took the plain
kettle, and they rode off.

00:03:30.200 --> 00:03:31.000 align:middle line:90%
