rain and spider

kita kimowan nipahaci kōhkominakīsīs – it will rain if you kill a spider

When I was a nāpīsis – a boy, nōhkom – my grandmother, used to tell me not to kill spiders or it would rain. Because of my wild imagination and the fact that it was nōhkom who told me, I was very careful about not killing spiders.
