To enlarge any more ujDon this Indian Jargon, would bealtogether needless, and troublesome to the Reader; thejhave such a strange way of abbreviating their Speech whenthey are Debating in their grand Councils, that the youngMen do not understand what they say or treat of.

TheseDifferences in their Speech frequently occasion Jealousiesand Fears amongst them, and are often the Motives of theircontinual Wars with each other; and were it not for thesecontinual Feuds and Animosities amongst themselves, theywould be as happy a People, as to this Life, as any upon theEarth.
