The Northern Shoshone
by Robert Lowie, 1909.
Here is the Latin you need to understand the story; I have linked to the story page by page with the Latin passages below:
p. 247
...ut cum rana muliebri coiret.
... in order to have sex with the female frog.
Illum in mulierem incumbentem Grus calcibus interfecit.
Crane kicked him to death as he lay on the woman.
It cracks me up whenever he interrupts a sentence midway to switch to Latin!
