great_a a_o number_n as_o you_o and_o your_o people_n be_v be_v ●urned_v unto_o the_o lord_n and_o become_v pray_v indian_n keit._n often_o have_v i_o hear_v of_o this_o great_a matter_n of_o pray_v

the_o first_o objection_n that_o i_o have_v be_v this_o because_o you_o pray_a indian_n do_v reject_v your_o sachem_n and_o refuse_v to_o pay_v they_o tribute_n insomuch_o that_o if_o any_o of_o my_o people_n turn_v to_o pray_v unto_o god_n i_o do_v reckon_v that_o i_o have_v lose_v he_o he_o will_v not_o long_o own_v i_o for_o his_o sachem_n nor_o pay_v i_o any_o tribute_n and_o hence_o it_o will_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o if_o i_o shall_v pray_v to_o god_n and_o all_o my_o people_n with_o i_o i_o must_v become_v a●●_n common_a man_n among_o they_o and_o so_o lose_v all_o my_o power_n
