However,  nocwithftandiog  this  Penufy,  they  are
aieny,  and  contented  with  their  Lot.  They  have
Sonn  and  Dances,  which  are  r^;ular  enough.  They
all  fit^  tt^ether,  and  make  the  fame  Geftures,
which  forms  a  Spedacle  that  is  no  ways  unpleafit^.
They  exprefied  a  Surprize  when  they  were  told
the  Form  of  Government,  the  Politeaels,  and  Cu-
floQU  that  {»ev^l  in  Enr^e^  of  which  they  had  no
Kmvledge.  They  admire  not  only  the  ai^ft  Ma-
jefty  c^  ahe  Ceremonies,  employed  by  the  ChurcU
io  celebrating  divine  Service  \  but  alfo  the  Mufic,
the  loftniments  and  Dances  of  the  Spaniards  \  their
Weapons,  and  above  all,  Gun- Powder.  They  Uke-
wifc  admired  the  Whitcnels  of  the  Eurepeaasy  them-
felves  being  of  a  tawny  Complexion,  as  are  all  the
Inhabitants  of  that  Country.
We  don't  yet  find  that  they  have  any  Knowlec^
tf  the  Deity,  nw  that  they  worlhip  Idqb  i  tljey
leeiniag  to  lead  a  life  iniirely  barbarous,  and  hav-
ing no  other  Care  but  to  procure  themfclvcs  Food.
They  difcovcr  a  great  Veneration  for  their  King,
and  the  Chieft  of  their  fevcral  Hamlets,  to  whom
dwy  ray  all  imaginable  Obedience.  They  have  no
ft^n  Hours  for  Meals;  but  eat  and  drink  at  on/'
Hour,  or  in  any  Place,  when  they  have  an  Appe-i
tile,  and  wherewithal  to  fatisfy  it :  But  they  never
eat  much  at  a  Tinjc,  and  always  in  fo  little  a  Qdan*
tity  as  is  not  fufEcicnt  to  ferve  for  the  D.iy.
