Summary

/kú–te–!gaúä, who could enter fire unharmed, enables the Mantis to do the same. The ingratitude of the latter to his instructor again brings him into trouble; and his newly acquired power deserts him. (L VIII.-11. 7015-7031, 12. 7032-7064). |ku-te !gaua goes through fire and draws out cats, 'such cat's as had no equal in beauty' and then skins them. |kaggen (the Mantis) sings like |ku-te !gaua and also gets skins, but he refuses to share them with |ku-te !gaua. |ku-te !gaua angrily says that |kaggen and the skins will burn in the fire, which happens.
