of_o christ_n that_o must_v do_v this_o for_o i_o and_o he_o give_v i_o true_a comfort_n only_o by_o believe_v in_o he_o the_o lord_n be_v so_o gracious_o with_o they_o in_o these_o confession_n that_o they_o have_v good_a acceptance_n we_o advise_v with_o the_o church_n touch_v our_o further_a progress_n the_o conclusion_n whereof_o be_v that_o we_o send_v letter_n to_o all_o the_o

which_o cause_n i_o send_v to_o mr_n peirson_n to_o old_a mr_n mayhu_n to_o thomas_n stanton_n to_o be_v present_a with_o we_o lose_v no_o know_a opportunity_n to_o bring_v our_o way_n into_o the_o

here_o be_v mr_n peirson_n and_o we_o have_v for_o clearness_n of_o our_o way_n because_o of_o his_o unacquaintance_n with_o our_o dialect_n order_v the_o confess_v indian_n to_o keep_v sabbath_n at_o roxbury_n we_o spend_v half_o the_o sabbath_n among_o they_o a_o good_a part_n whereof_o be_v spend_v in_o hear_v some_o of_o their_o confession_n and_o all_o the_o second_o day_n we_o so_o spend_v so_o that_o mr_n peirson_n have_v take_v in_o write_v all_o their_o confession_n so_o that_o if_o the_o assembly_n please_v they_o may_v hear_v the_o confession_n which_o they_o make_v before_o the_o elder_n of_o roxbury_n which_o i_o have_v here_o in_o writing_n and_o have_v be_v already_o see_v by_o sundry_a of_o the_o elder_n also_o they_o may_v hear_v the_o confession_n which_o mr_n peirson_n and_o i_o have_v take_v yesterday_o which_o compare_v with_o what_o the_o lord_n shall_v assist_v they_o to_o utter_v this_o day_n may_v help_v to_o clear_v up_o the_o verity_n and_o reality_n of_o

when_o i_o speak_v unto_o he_o about_o this_o work_n that_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o different_a dialect_n he_o dare_v not_o alone_o undertake_v to_o give_v in_o a_o testimony_n but_o if_o he_o bring_v one_o of_o his_o indian_n with_o he_o as_o need_n may_v be_v to_o help_v he_o than_o he_o dare_v undertake_v to_o give_v a_o testimony_n upon_o oath_n if_o need_n be_v this_o man_n and_o his_o

may_v so_o do_v further_o i_o declare_v that_o in_o all_o this_o matter_n we_o do_v submit_v ourselves_o to_o the_o guidance_n of_o the_o reverend_a council_n here_o present_a and_o desire_v they_o to_o direct_v we_o and_o order_v we_o as_o they_o see_v meet_v to_o do_v in_o the_o lord_n then_o we_o proceed_v to_o hear_v the_o indian_n confession_n which_o be_v as_o follow_v nishóhkou_n i_o call_v he_o forth_o and_o say_v stand_v up_o and_o make_v your_o confession_n before_o the_o lord_n and_o his_o people_n he_o say_v i_o desire_v to_o confess_v before_o god_n and_o all_o these_o wise_a man_n and_o god_n help_v by_o the_o merciful_a help_n of_o his_o gracious_a spirit_n that_o i_o may_v confess_v all_o my_o sin_n i_o hear_v that_o word_n gen._n 5._o that_o god_n make_v adam_n in_o his_o own_o image_n both_o male_a and_o female_a and_o after_o many_o year_n adam_n beget_v a_o son_n in_o his_o own_o image_n have_v lose_v god_n image_n and_o god_n do_v form_v man_n in_o the_o

and_o original_a sin_n be_v root_v in_o my_o heart_n and_o grow_v up_o there_o also_o i_o confess_v that_o when_o i_o be_v a_o child_n my_o parent_n and_o i_o be_v all_o wild_a we_o pray_v to_o many_o god_n and_o many_o other_o sin_n we_o do_v and_o all_o the_o people_n do_v the_o same_o both_o man_n and_o woman_n they_o live_v in_o all_o lust_n they_o pray_v to_o every_o creature_n the_o sun_n moon_n star_n sea_n earth_n fish_n fowl_n beast_n tree_n etc._n etc._n all_o these_o thing_n i_o see_v when_o i_o be_v a_o youth_n and_o all_o these_o thing_n i_o like_v and_o love_v to_o do_v and_o be_v delight_v with_o these_o thing_n in_o all_o these_o thing_n i_o live_v and_o with_o these_o thing_n my_o memory_n be_v exercise_v and_o in_o my_o youth_n i_o do_v what_o i_o list_v as_o pauwave_v or_o what_o else_o i_o will_v when_o i_o be_v grow_v up_o i_o love_v lust_n and_o delight_v in_o it_o i_o know_v it_o not_o to_o be_v a_o sin_n but_o a_o excellent_a delight_n i_o love_v all_o sin_n but_o especial_o lust_n and_o all_o that_o i_o do_v be_v for_o the_o sake_n of_o lust_n such_o thing_n as_o woman_n may_v like_v of_o if_o i_o cut_v my_o hair_n it_o be_v to_o please_v woman_n if_o i_o cut_v my_o hair_n in_o another_o fashion_n and_o leave_v a_o lock_n on_o one_o side_n it_o be_v with_o respect_n to_o lust_n if_o i_o get_v fine_a clothes_n stocking_n shoe_n all_o be_v for_o to_o serve_v lust_n our_o meeting_n and_o drink_n be_v with_o respect_n to_o lust_n so_o that_o this_o be_v the_o chief_a thing_n i_o do_v delight_n in_o and_o these_o thing_n be_v in_o my_o bone_n and_o there_o grow_v then_o the_o minister_n come_v to_o channit_n to_o teach_v we_o i_o come_v to_o the_o meeting_n but_o in_o vain_a i_o come_v for_o lust_n to_o look_v on_o woman_n always_o i_o do_v thus_o and_o i_o think_v teach_v to_o be_v madness_n and_o so_o i_o continue_v two_o year_n after_o we_o pray_v to_o god_n after_o two_o year_n i_o hear_v a_o little_a my_o ear_n be_v a_o little_a open_v i_o first_o understand_v that_o word_n he_o that_o doubt_v be_v like_o a_o wave_n of_o the_o sea_n drive_v to_o and_o fro_o and_o toss_v and_o that_o word_n if_o any_o man_n lack_v wisdom_n let_v he_o ask_v it_o of_o god_n who_o give_v free_o and_o upbraid_v no_o man_n also_o the_o same_o winter_n i_o hear_v that_o word_n gen._n 6._o god_n say_v i_o will_v destroy_v man_n who_o i_o have_v create_v and_o he_o repent_v that_o he_o have_v make_v he_o these_o thing_n i_o understand_v and_o remember_v but_o i_o confess_v before_o god_n that_o i_o do_v only_o hear_v and_o know_v these_o thing_n as_o i_o do_v sometime_o speak_v of_o what_o i_o do_v remember_v but_o i_o believe_v not_o yea_o i_o laugh_v
