To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But it should be borne in mind that the Narragansetts could reach Pl3nnouth only by sailing around Cape Cod, which was impracticable, or by crossing Wampanoag territory. This would be an act of open hostility to the latter unless as- sented to, so it may have been, not the powder and balls alone, but the knowledge that he would have to contest his way with Massasoit's warriors, as well, that held the wily Canonicus in check. The Narragansetts at that time could muster at least three thousand wa...rriors, and if the Wampanoags had been hostile to the Enghsh or even passive, it does not require any particularly prophetic vision or power of divination to read the result to the colonists. And so the first year passed without even the 118 MASSASOIT suspicion of any lack of good faith on the part of either the natives or the colonists; for no one ever thought of blaming Massasoit for the acts of Cor- bitant, or of the Manomets and Nausets. Corbi- tant's Pocassets were ahnost or quite as strong numerically as the Pokanokets alone, and their ter- ritory adjoined; and the Manomets and Nausets were way down on Cape Cod.
