Sanpoil

Two brothers, Stikwastelt ("One-eye") and Spuxwanika, went where some people were camped. They were good-looking fellows, and Toad wondered how she could get to meet the young strangers. She went outside and urinated into the sky. It rained until the ground was flooded and all the campfires were put out. The brothers went into Toad's lodge to get out of the cold.

Toad jumped on the cheek of the younger brother and called herself his wife. Try as they could, they could not dislodge her.

The people were trying to make a sun. They tried many animals, but something was wrong with every one. When Woodpecker was the sun, it was much too hot. When Coyote was sun, he saw everything happening below and later told everybody. Then the people went to the two brothers. One-eye agreed to be the sun. His brother became the moon; Toad can still be seen on his face.
