Explore "Iktomi and the Turtle" by Zitkála-Šá on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
The huntsman Patkaša (turtle) stood bent over a newly slain deer.
The red-tipped arrow he drew from the wounded deer was unlike the arrows in his own quiver. Another's stray shot had killed the deer. Patkaša had hunted all the morning without so much as spying an ordinary blackbird.
