"On the farther side of the fourth ridge from the edge of the mountains,
there are four little mountains. At the edge of the farthest
[little mountain] are four cliffs. Under them and on the east side
of them, there are four lakes. On the east side of the uppermost
lake, four rivers flow into it. On the [river] bank farthest away
lie four clumps of tule. On the east side of the uppermost [clump]
lies a black stone. And, sitting on it, is the Frog chief."
