The ghosts talked among themselves, and one of them said to the man, "Yes; you shall stay here for four nights, and then we will give you a medicine pipe—the Worm Pipe—and we will give you back your wife and you may return to your home." "'Him'?—whom?"—demands her husband, with pardonable vivacity. So he takes her hand, and together they lean over the brink and survey themselves in Nature's glass.
