I much commend the Wisdom of your Stay. Prepare yourself, and hasten to his Quarters; You cannot make th' Attempt with too much Speed. Urge ev'ry Argument with Force upon him, Urge my strong Friendship, urge your Brother's Love, His Daughter's Happiness, the common Good; The general Sense of all the Indian Chiefs, The Baseness of our Foes, our Hope of Conquest; The Richness of the Plunder if we speed; That we'll divide and share it as he pleases; That our Success is certain if he joins us. Urge these, and what besides to you occurs; All cannot fail, I think, to change his Purpose.
