Even now as you speak your big talk,
our English Fathers Scottish skirt-wearers and Brant's Mohawks have struck your main villages, burnt your council house, your homes, your store houses, and your crops!
They have taken many of your women and children prisoner, and are now nearing Fort Niagara.
You have nothing but ashes and the wails of those elders who managed to flee...
What is two thousand, when the whole of the Shawnee, the Wyandot, the Seneca, the Mohawk, and our English Fathers forces strike at you?
It is nothing but the pesky stings of a few bees to the bear as he enjoys the bees honey...
