This chapter opens with a description of a dream in which an old man and a young man are staring at each other. The old man has a menacing glare at the young man, and the dream turns into a nightmare in which the old man is thrown into the air. The young man hears a hawk flying overhead, and he pretends to be the drowned man in order to get help. He pretends that he is the one who is drowning, so that the others will not be able to help him.
