Advertizement and Contents 3 pp. Text pp. 208. This edition became soon exhausted; thereupon the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts resolved to have a new impression printed, especially as Colonel Claus, who was in England at the time, consented to superintend the impression, critically revise the whole and correct the sheets as they came from the press. His accurate knowledge of the Mohawk language, (continues the Preface) qualified him for the undertaking; and it is no more than justice to say, that this is only one out of many instances of this gentleman's unremitting attention to the welfare of the Indians. The fourth edition of the Mohawk Book of Common Prayer appeared accordingly. The previous ones had been printed in the Mohawk language only; in this the English is also printed on the opposite page. Besides this addition, the Gospel of St, Mark is inserted, with a translation of it into Mohawk by Captain Joseph Brant, being the first of the Gospels that was printed entire in that language. This volume has two Title pages, of which the following is a reprint: The Book of Common Prayer, | And Administration of the | Ne Yakawea | Yondereanayendaghkwa | Oghseragwegouh, neoni yakawea | ne Orighwadogeaghty | Yondatnekosseraghs | neoni | Tekarighwagehhadont, | oya oni | Adereanayent, ne teas nikariwake | Raditsihuhstatsygowa | Ronaderighwissoh | Goraghgowa A-Onea Rodanhaouh. | Oni, Watkanissa-aghtoh | Oddyake Adereanayent, | neoni Tsiniyoght-hare ne | Kaghyadoghseradogeaghty, | Newahòeny Akoyendarake neoni Ahhondatterihhonny. | A-onea wadiròroghkwe, neoni Tekaweanadènnyoh Kanyen- | kehaga Tsikaweanondaghko, ne neane Raditsihuhstatsy ne | Radirighwawakoughkgòwa ronadanhà-ouh, Kanyenke waon-dye tsi-radinakeronnyo Ongwe-oewe. | Keagaye ase Yondereanayendaghkwa. | oni tahogsonderoh | St. Mark Raorighwadogeaghty, | Tekaweanadennyoh Eanyen kehaga Rakowanea | Thayendanegea, | Hoewayats.| London: | Karistodarho C.
