The first part of the poem is so incomplete, that I have thought it best to introduce the reader immediately to the second part. The war had broken out. Chicomico had solicited the presence of Ompahaw, a venerable chief, to aid her father Hillis-adjo against the whites, with Rathmond at their head. The battle is described, the Indians are victorious, and Rathmond is taken prisoner. Here the second part commences. Editor. CHIGOMICO. (Written in her fourteenth year.) PART II. What sight of horror..., fear and woe, Now greets chief Hillis-ha-ad-joe ? What thought of blood now lights his eye ? What victim foe is doomed to die ? For his cheek is flushed, and his air is wild, And he cares not id look on his only child. His lip quivers with rage, his eye flashes fire. And his bosom beats high with a tempest of ire. Alas ! 't is Rathmond stands a prisoner now, Awaiting death from Hillis-ha-ad-joe, From Hillis-ha-ad-joe, the stern, the dread, To whose vindictive, cruel, savage mind, Loss after loss fast following from behind.
