Tuckôteshana, Yò nowaum, I came that way. Náwwatuck nóteshem, I came from farre. Mattaâsu nóteshem, I came from hard by. Wêtu, An House. Wetuômuck nóteshem, I came from the house. Acâwmuck nóteshem, I came over the water. Otàn, A Towne. Otânick nóteshem, I came from the Towne. OBSERVATION. In the Narigánset Countrey (which is the chief People in the Land) a man shall come to many townes, some bigger, some lesser, it may be a dozen in 20 miles travell. OBSERVATION. _Acawmenóakit_, old England, which is as much as _from the Land on t’other side_: hardly are they brought to believe that that water is three thousand English mile over or thereabouts. Tunnock kuttòme, Whither goe you? Wékick nittóme, To the house. Nékick, To my house. Kékick, To your house. Tuckowêkin, Where dwell you? Tuckuttîin, Where keep you? Matnowetuómeno, I have no house. OBSERVATION. As commonly a single person hath no house, so after the death of a Husband or Wife, they often break up house, and live here and there a while with Friends to allay their excessive sorrowes. Tou wuttîin? Where lives he? Awânickuchick, Who are these? Awaùn ewò? Who is that? Túnna úmwock, Tunna Wutshaûock, Whence come they? Yo nowêkin, I dwell here. Yo ntiîn, I live here. Eîu or Nnîu? Is it so? Nùx, Yea. Matnippompitámmen, I have heard nothing. Wésuonck, A name. Tocketussawêitch, What is your name? Taantússawese? Doe you aske my name. Ntússawese, I am called, &c. Matnowesuónckane, I have no name. OBSERVATION. Obscure and meane persons amongst them have no names: _nullius numeri_ &c. as the Lord Jesus foretells his followers that their names should be cast out, Luk. 6. 22. as not worthy to be named &c. Againe, because they abhorre to name the dead (Death being the King of Terrours to all naturall men: and though the natives hold the Soule to live ever, yet not holding a Resurrection they die and mourn without Hope.) In that respect I say, if any of their Sáchims or neighbours die who were of their names, they lay down those Names as dead.
