The rock woman knew what he thought. She was like a pounding stone, but she could move around and work. She cooked a whole deer for Wŏn and the girl. Wŏn said aloud to the girl: “You must eat this meat or she will get mad.” The girl thought: “I can’t eat so much.” Dûnwa jumped up and down and raised a terrible dust. The man said: “I told you not to think anything about this woman.” They were both frightened. When night came, Dûnwa was a woman. The three slept in the house. Just at daylight Dûnwa was a rock again. She said to Wŏn: “To-night your new wife must sleep in the bushes; I will sleep in the house.” That night Wŏn said aloud to the girl: “Will you stay around here, or shall we go off to a new place?” The girl said: “Get ready; we will go away from here. I am afraid of Dûnwa.” The next day Dûnwa was busy eating; she didn’t miss Wŏn till almost night. Then she began to track him. Wŏn and the girl had got to a big river when they heard her coming a long way off. She was mad; she made a noise like heavy thunder. Wŏn was scared. He asked: “What can we do? If she overtakes us she will kill us. If we could cross the river, maybe we could get away.” There was a house on the other bank of the river, and near it old man Tcoóks was fishing. Wŏn called out: “Uncle, help us across?” Tcoóks said: “Don’t you see that I have no canoe?” The man begged so hard that at last Tcoóks lay down and stretched one of his legs across the river. When Wŏn and the girl were over, he told them to go into the house; he went back to fish. Dûnwa came like a great stone ball; she hit rocks and trees. Sometimes she rolled along on the ground, sometimes she flew through the air. When she got to the river, she called out: “Old man, take me across!” “I have no canoe. How can I take you across?” “Did you see my husband?” “I haven’t seen any one.” “His tracks are here; you put him across. How did you do it?” Dûnwa scolded and threatened till Tcoóks stretched his leg across the river. When she came down hard on it, Tcoóks said: “Be careful, I am not a canoe.” He was mad; he turned his leg and shook her off. She sprang on again. He turned his leg a second time, and a second time she sprang on. The third time he shook her off she fell where the water was deep. Tcoóks drew away his leg and she was drowned. Wŏn didn’t go back to his old home; he and the girl stayed with Tcoóks.
