🌲 Kulóskap the master, and other Algonkin poems, Opening, part 19, sentence 3

Now, as of all the rogues, Rowdies and rascal roughs, The Wolves are just the worst, You may right well believe That ’twas with wondrous joy Lox heard, as night came on, Afar a long sad howl, Betokening the presence Of a pack of these pleasant folk; It was music to the ears Of the Indian Devil, Lox.

Who acts: Wolves, You, twas, night, presence · What happens: be, believe, hear, come on, betoken · To what, where: That, Afar, presence, music
