And you must continue to look after me thus occasionally until I shall have reached the height of four feet, when you must again give me closer attention; and pull word scratched out away the weeds that are come about me; and use the hoe, as you did before; and invoke two words scratched out me with songs like this:

                                                                  Hay - oh    nee - kay
                                                                  words scratched out May - hoh --
                                                                  Hay - oh     nee - kay
                                                                                          Nay - hoh
                                                                  Hay ay       tall ungh - steyh
                                                                   Haht tah    noolah - kay
                                                                                  Hon - ayel - lee - uh
                                                                                        Heed way - See - yooh! __

And what asked I, is the meaning of these words in English?

     The words which in Cherokee convey our several words scratched out sacred songs & traditions are many of them little understood now even by the Cherokee themselves. They are ancient and the word scratched out broken nation of the present day find it hard to tell words scratched out their meaning.
