82 "PRINCE — A MODERN DELAWARE TALE. I Jan. 3, 



IV. " Aloorhwat ^ he traveling,' participle ; cp. O. D. miss-ochwen 

 * he walks about.' Quack must mean 'somewhat.' Yih^ dem. 

 pron., piobably 'a certain.' Thkuhinthoowh *a small boy' = 

 O. D. and Unami skahenso (see Len. Diet., p. 115). Patchih- 

 kcheewh 'there came forth,' from O. D. ktschin 'go out '; see on 

 V. ^ Taunha wtindin ^ K. toni wdain 'how is he?' Ksheeth 

 see II. "=. 



IV. ^ Mawshalindum and mawsheelawahkoo appear to be alterna- 

 tive synonyms. The first is written in parentheses in Montour's 

 MS. Almawsheel probably means ' that (al = rel. particle) one so 

 strange.' Warn 'all '; see I. ^. Wawihfoon ' he knows it' (inan.); 

 cp. A. fC wawawinowd ' I know him.' Aylackzvloowheen ' our con- 

 dition'; aylack = O. D. e/ek 'as it is'j wloowheen 'our being 

 thus.' I have translated it in the 3 p. for the sake of the English. 



IV. " Lawpeewh ' again '; see on II. " and III. \ Moorhkum 

 ' he found ' = O. D. mochganien. Ahwawhlihkoo probably ' there 

 was a wizard ' (so Montour). Shawa = O. D. schawl 'at once '; 

 occurs also IV. ^. Wniiiahko ' he knows '; cp. wnitiootumin, IV. '^, 

 and Prince, op. ciL, p. 298. Wtil-sheewalindiwioo 'he feels sad '; 

 wtil-, pref. 3 p. (A. wdelH-)\ sheewa ' sad ' (O. D. schiwamallsm 

 ' he feels grieved '); lindumoo, the ending denoting a state of 

 mind ; cp. I. %^. WeetiawqtJwwh ' he looks sad,' from ween, same 

 stem as in weenamulthoo, I. ^, -j- awqthowh 'he looks,' as in 

 cheepeenawqthoo, I. ^; II. ^. 



IV. ^ Warn, see I. ^ ; IV. ^. Wtilauch seems to be a fut. ' he will 

 tell him '; see also in V. *. It is probably used here vividly. 

 Mookuhwaun appears to be a synonym of withkeelno ' youth.' Wtil- 

 wturhquon ' he describes to him,' from wtil-, pref 3 p. + v wturh 

 -j- qiion, ending 3 p. sing, (see Prince, op. clt., p. 298). Wnlnootu- 

 mln, 3 p. sing. inan. with def -In, as in A. n^wajonem awlkhlgan 

 'I have a book,' but n'wajonemen azvlkhlgan 'I have the book.' 

 Wuh llnno ' that man.' With wuh, cp. A. wa 'that.' Nunrhat is 

 probably a participial formation as shown by -at. Muitontoe must 

 be connected with O. D. mattonheen ' he curses ' and -to, the same 

 ending seen in Manltto ' Spirit.' It is clearly a cognitive of A. 

 madahodo * evil spirit.' 



IV. ^ Chee quack leetahhawa ' don't think anything about it,' not 

 translated at all by Montour. Composed of chee, prohib. ' dont ' 

 (cp. I. **) -\- quack ' anything ' -|- leetahah ' think ' (occurs also
