_Hercules_ also comes in--he is per- haps as much revered by those people as even he was by the Spartans or Athenians-- His name is _Strong Neck_ (& every body knows how strong hercules was)--he does not seem over fond of Jokes--& when the other Spirits announce his coming all those on the outside must cover their heads & not look up; for it appears that he cannot come _invisible_ as the others do, or will not, but still does not chuse to be seen. "Once upon a time his arrival was announced, & every body was ordered "to cover themselves, so as not to see (this, & all such like orders are commands sent to "the Conjuror, & which he, (being inside) must _Promulgate_ to those on the outside)-- "--there was one young Buck however who wanted to shew himself supe- "rior to these orders & divert his freinds, would not cover himself--Hercules "entered--& at that time, as at all others, he was not in too good a humor--Some alter- "cation ensued & "I am Strong Neck" said he "Pah! says the young man at last, "the neck of my os-Pubis indeed is strong"! This raised a most violent laugh, but "the young man was lost--he disappeared from amongst them, & was never after "heard of. Since _that_ time they are rather more cautious. Some of the _Ancients_ also enter--they are called "O-may-me-thay-day-ce-cee-wuck" i.e. _Hairy breasts_ (10) such as the ancients are said to be.. These are great boasters--they recount the exploits of their younger days, apparently with the greatest satisfaction; say "I used to do so & so "on such occasions--I never shot a Moose or Buffaloe, but pursued them on my feet, "& ripped them open with my knife &c." But this is only _wind_, for no sooner do other powerful ones enter, but these Chaps search to secret themselves. The Sun enters--speakes very bad English at the offset, but by degrees becomes to speake it very easily & fluently--He is Gun Smith & watch-maker, or at least can repair them. When he is entered there is commonly a beautiful clear light visible, through the covering--He neither does not admit of too much familiarity; but is still good natured & condescending. The Pike or Jack fish, also enters; as the Sun, they also speak (French,) badly enough at the offset, "When there are 2 or 3 on the outside who can speake french & address him together, "merely to perplex & bother him, he laughs at their folly & says 'you may talk "'20 or 100 of you together if you chuse, yet are you not able to perplex me--come as "'numerous as you chuse, yet are there many more of us _Pike_ that you frenchmen'" --he is very familiar too. The Bull, or Buffaloe is understood only by the Conjuror, his voice being hoarse, & rough--his language quite foreign--the Conjurer must interpret when any thing is wanted of him.--As is his voice, so are his manners-- --however, he will joke a little too; but let them beware not to let drop anything
