Only rarely does the narrator interrupt to tell us something about the scene.
It is a reward to you, because you believe me, for no other reason. To hough a horse is to cut the leg tendons above and behind the tarsal joint or ankle, thus rendering the horse useless. There is a misconception that England started the two colonies which is not exactly true. That they might neither pollute nor devour what had been thus consecrated to God. The mortality rate was extremely high as they underwent extreme privation and increasingly serious conflict with the Native Americans. For those who know the story of Jamestown only through the mythical love story between John Smith and Pocahontas, and who may be looking for confirmation of that tale within these pages, disappointment will surely follow.

Three main principles were the contributing factors to this beginning: Indian relations, the tenacity of the settlers, and the idea of Christianity. Jamestown went through some horrific nonsense to get a foothold in the New World. Forty years of wandering in the wilderness had brought Israel to stand upon a mountaintop overlooking the land of promise.
