To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When an Indian stole some beads and SICKNESS, HEALTH, WAR, DIPLOMACY 223 scissors from the shallop while lying in a creek, Standish went to Aspinet, the sachem, and de- manded the return of the goods or the culprit.
The doughty captain took leave, refusing gifts or kindness. The next morning Aspinet came to make up, and in such a comical way that the white men could hardly keep from laughter. The In- dian chief thrust out his tongue, so that one could see its very root, and licked the captain's... hand from the wrist to the finger's end, — evidently an imitation of a dog's way of making an apology.
Then, following a fashion imitated from the Eng- lish, having been taught by Squanto, he got down on his marrow bones, but in so rude and savage a manner as to bring a smile to the white men's faces. After that he handed back the beads to Captain Standish, assuring him that he had flogged the thief and had made the women bake bread for the white men. It was all as amusing as if in a comic opera.
