    EPIGRAPH: Their prophet, Motséèóve (Sweet Medicine), told the Cheyenne of the coming of a person to them; this person was apparently the white man. Sweet Medicine told the Cheyenne: "A person is going to come to you [pl]. He will be all sewed up [enclosed in clothes], nowhere will he not be sewed up, this person who is going to come to you. He is going to destroy everything that you used to depend on, he is going to destroy everything.... And this one who is going to come to you will take over all the land throughout the world.

All dogs and people in free concourse Became medium sized and brown.
