[XLVIII.]

“Here lies Namasket tow’rd the rising sun;

There Massasoit spends his seasons cold;

The warriors there are led by Annawan,

Of open hand and of a bosom bold;

Here farther down, Cohannet’s banks upon,

Spreads broad Pocasset, strong Apannow’s hold;

The bowmen there tread Massasoit’s land,

E’en to Seconnet’s billow-beaten strand.
