Chapter 1. The Wigwam Under the Rock

The early springtime sunrise was near at hand as
Quonab, the last of the Myanos Sinawa, stepped
from his sheltered wigwam under the cliff that
borders the Asamuk easterly, and, mounting to the lofty
brow of the great rock that is its highest pinnacle, he
stood in silence, awaiting the first ray of the sun over
the sea water that stretches between Connecticut and
Seawanaky.

His silent prayer to the Great Spirit was ended as a
golden beam shot from a long, low cloud-bank over the
sea, and Quonab sang a weird Indian song for the rising
sun, an invocation to the Day God:

"O thou that risest from the low cloud
To burn in the all above;
I greet thee! I adore thee!"
