It chanced Powhatan’s delight and darling, his daughter Pocahontas, (whose fame has even been spread in England by the title of Nonparella [unequalled, princess] of Virginia) in her princely progress, if I may so term it, took some pleasure (in the absence of Captain Argall) to be among her friends at Pataomecke (as it seemed by the relation I had) employed there, as shopkeepers to fair, to exchange some of her fathers commodities for theirs.
