Time’s two youths set forth and passed over them—
Tomorrow a youth of time has passed over them
day and night, overtaking kinsfolk.
A day and a night chase each other

Whenever together they encountered a tribe in good fortune,
When they meet, all alive and happy
time encamped among them until they met with strange happenings.
It anchored them until they encounter wonders
