Oh! where is Gar-an-gu-la--Sachem wise?

Who was the father of his people?--where

King Hendrick, Cay-en-guac-to?--_who replies?_

Brought to the dust in sorrow and despair

By pale oppression, though thy bow was strong

To guard their Thirteen Fires?--they did not spare

E'en thee, old chieftain, and thy tuneful tongue

The death-dirge of thy race in measured cadence sung.
