It is said that a snake heard the Indians grieving over a very long drought and the unfruitfulness of the land, so it wound itself into a ball and wasthrown high into the air. It unwound itself again and grew longer and longer until b And since then - every time it rains while the sun is shining - the snake has stretched its supple body across the sky.
