The preliminary note reads as follows: "A 

 single leaf at the end of Eliot's Indian bible, 

 in both the first and second editions, contains 

 a catechism for the Indians, or, more exactly, 

 some rules and directions for leading a religious 

 * life in the form of answers to the two questions : 

 ' How can I walk with God all the day long ? ' 

 and ' What should a Christian do to keep the 

 Sabbath day perfectly holy ? ' 



"The annexed translation, which is as nearly 

 literal as possible, was made at the request of 

 a friend, for insertion in a copy of the Indian 

 Bible. At his suggestion a few copies are now 

 printed for distribution to other possessors of 

 that rare and curious volume. — J. H. T."
