For the men Ile not misse you a haire of their condition; and for the women I know 'em as well as if I had bene in their bellyes. Ele. Are they not cruell? Buz. As Tygers, when they set on't: no mercy unlesse we aske them forgiveness. Ele. That's somewhat yet. Buz. But not to you; that's onely to men; for lett the women fall downe afore 'em never so often they'le rather fall upon them.

The Iroquoits finding that they must come out of their fort to the watterside, where they left their boats, to make use of them in case of neede, where indeed made an escape, leaving all their baggage behind, which was not much, neither had we enough to fill our bellyes with the meat that was left; there weare kettles, broaken gunns, & rusty hattchetts.

The sleepe that we tooke that night did not make our heads guidy, although we had need of reposeing. Many liked the occupation, for they filled their bellyes with the flesh of their ennemyes. We broiled some of it and kettles full of the rest. We bourned our comrades, being their custome to reduce such into ashes being stained in bataill. It is an honnour to give them such a buriall.

And happy was he that could gett what the other did throw away after it had ben boyled 3 or foure times to gett the substance out of it.

From thence came a young man with us. Wee had allways great preparations, and weare invited 9 or tenne times a day. Our bellyes had not tyme to emptie themselves, because we feeded so much, and that what was prepared for us weare severall sortes, Stagg, Indian corne, thick flower, bears, and especially eels. We have not yett searched our baggs wheare our provision was.
