man — continued. 



[mogke-omp, great man], a captain; 

 nunkomp [luaikon-omp, light man], a 

 young man, not yet a warrior; penoinp 

 [penaoe-omp, strange to man, nescius 

 viri ?], a virgin; ompiilnjuxh [ump-ohta- 

 gish, belonging or appn.piiate to man], 

 weapons, used in tlie Mass. Psalter, 

 John 18, 3, where Eliot has amvah- 

 teaongcwh; ahlomp [mll-onp, ahhut-omp, 

 belonging to man], a bow; ompeh- 

 tedonk, ompetedotik [vbl. n. from omp- 

 ohteau, it belongs to man], 'an old 

 Indian word', says Cotton, 'that sig- 

 nifies obedience by giving any [trib- 

 ute] ' ; tribute or royalty, exacted by 

 and paid to a superior (see tribute). 

 The primary signification of the word 

 omp is, perhaps, a freeman, independ- 

 ent, owing no fealty; it is allied to 

 ompeu, he is free, unbound, loose (see 

 loose), ompenum, he looses, unbinds; 

 but the.se last may be derivatives from 

 the common root. Heckewelder states 

 that in the Delaware the names of 

 animals "walking in an erect post- 

 ure" terminate regularly in ap or ape, 

 "henceleitape,raan" (Corresp.411). A 

 considerable class of words used by 

 Eliot to express manner of standing 

 and change of posture have apparently 

 a similar origin, being compounds of 

 a verb ompau, he stands; as sampmkom- 

 pau, he stood upright; quenikompau, 

 he stands upon (it); ohpikkompau 

 [= oiiipik-oinpau'!], it stands upon, etc. 

 (see stand). It may be that to stand 

 erect is the primary and to be free a 

 secondary signification of the same 

 verb, ompau or ompeu. C'f. Del. nihiUa-
