english_a man_n book_n this_o black_a man_n he_o say_v stand_v upon_o a_o high_a place_n than_o all_o the_o rest_n and_o on_o the_o one_o side_n of_o he_o be_v the_o english_a on_o the_o other_o a_o great_a number_n of_o indian_n this_o man_n tell_v all_o the_o indian_n that_o god_n be_v moosquantum_fw-la or_o angry_a with_o they_o and_o that_o he_o will_v kill_v they_o for_o their_o sin_n whereupon_o he_o say_v himself_o stand_v up_o and_o desire_v to_o know_v of_o the_o black_a man_n what_o god_n will_v do_v with_o he_o and_o his_o squaw_n and_o papoose_v but_o the_o black_a man_n will_v not_o answer_v he_o a_o first_o time_n nor_o yet_o a_o second_o time_n until_o he_o desire_v the_o three_o time_n and_o then_o he_o smile_v upon_o he_o and_o tell_v he_o that_o he_o and_o his_o

have_v with_o the_o truth_n accomplish_v you_o may_v easy_o see_v i_o attribute_v little_a to_o dream_n yet_o god_n may_v speak_v to_o such_o by_o they_o rather_o than_o to_o those_o who_o have_v a_o more_o sure_a word_n to_o direct_v and_o warn_v they_o yet_o this_o dream_n make_v we_o think_v sure_o this_o indian_a will_v regard_v the_o black_a man_n now_o come_v among_o they_o rather_o than_o any_o other_o of_o they_o but_o whether_o satan_n or_o fear_v and_o guilt_n or_o world_n prevail_v we_o can_v say_v but_o this_o be_v certain_a that_o he_o withdraw_v from_o the_o sermon_n and_o although_o he_o come_v at_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o it_o as_o hope_v it_o have_v be_v do_v yet_o we_o can_v not_o persuade_v he_o then_o to_o stay_v and_o hear_v but_o away_o he_o fling_v and_o we_o see_v he_o no_o more_o till_o next_o day_n from_o this_o three_o of_o march_n until_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o this_o summer_n i_o can_v not_o be_v present_a at_o the_o indian_a lecture_n but_o
