On the Way to the MissionNote: This essay is a historical document that contains the word “Indian” in reference to people Indigenous to North America. In earlier times, this was considered an acceptable term for referring to Indigenous people, but today the term is outdated and inappropriate unless reading directly from a historical document or work of literature. Any questions related to this passage will use more appropriate terminology unless it is directly quoting the passage.They dogged him all one afternoonThrough the bright snow,Two white men, servants of greed;He knew that they were there,But he turned not his head;He was an Indian trapper;He planted his snow-shoes firmly,He dragged the long tobogganWithout rest.The three figures driftedLike shadows in the mind of a seer;The snow-shoes were the whisperersOn the threshold of awe;The toboggan made the sound of wings,A wood pigeon sloping to her nest.The Indian’s face was calm,He strode with the sorrow of fore-knowledge.But his eyes were jewels of contentSet in circles of peace.They would have shot him;But momently in the deep forest,They saw something flit by his side;Their hearts stopped with fear.Then the moon rose.They would have left him to the spirit,But they saw the long tobogganRounded well with furs,With many a silver fox-skin,With the pelts of mink and otter,They were the servants of greed;When the moon grew brighterAnd the spruces were dark with sleet.They shot him.When he fell on a shield of moonlightOne of his arms clung to his burden;The snow was not melted:The spirit passed away—Then the servants of greedTore off the cover to count their gains;They shuddered away into the shadows,Hearing each the loud heart of the other,Silence was born.There in the tender moonlight,As sweet as they were in life,Glimmered the ivory featuresOf the Indian’s wife.In the manner of Montagnais womenHer hair was rolled with braid;Under her waxen fingersA crucifix was laid.He was drawing her down to the mission,To bury her there in the spring,When the blood root comes and the windflowerTo silver everything.But as a gift of plunderSide by side were they laid,The moon went on with her settingAnd covered them with shade.—by D.
