 A strange and bloody1 battle—The lion bearded in his den—Frightful2 scenes of cruelty, and fears for the future.
 
We had ascertained3 from the teacher the direction to the spot on which the battle was to be fought, and after a walk of two hours, reached it. The summit of a bare hill was the place chosen; for, unlike most of the other islanders, who are addicted4 to bush-fighting, those of Mango are in the habit of meeting on open ground. We arrived before the two parties had commenced the deadly struggle, and creeping as close up as we dared among the rocks, we lay and watched them.
 
The combatants were drawn5 up face to face, each side ranged in rank four deep. Those in the first row were armed with long spears; the second with clubs to defend the spearmen; the third row was composed of young men with slings6; and the fourth consisted of women, who carried baskets of stones for the slingers, and clubs and spears with which to supply the warriors7. Soon after we arrived, the attack was made with great fury. There was no science displayed. The two bodies of savages8 rushed headlong upon each other and engaged in a general mélée, and a more dreadful set of men I have never seen. They wore grotesque11 war-caps, made of various substances and decorated with feathers. Their faces and bodies were painted so as to make them look as frightful as possible; and as they brandished12 their massive clubs, leaped, shouted, yelled, and dashed each other to the ground, I thought I had never seen men look so like
