Coyote wakes angry; in the Latin section he attempts to catch small rabbits with his robe during defecation but finds excrement; he then gives the robe to a nearby Stone and sees it become clean and white.
The Stone receives the robe, is deprived of it repeatedly, becomes angry, moves, and runs after Coyote.
