"At his entrance before the king, all the people gave a great shout. The queen of Appamatuck was appointed to bring him water to wash his hands, and another brought him a bunch of feathers, instead of a towel to dry them: having feasted him after their best barbarous manner they could, a long consultation was held, but the conclusion was, two great stones were brought before Powhatan: then as many as could laid hands on him, dragged him to them, and thereon laid his head, and being ready with their clubs, to beat out his brains, Pocahontas the king's dearest daughter, when no entreaty could prevail, got his head in her arms, and laid her own upon his to save him from death: whereat the Emperor was contented he should live to make him hatchets, and her bells, beads, and copper; for they thought him as well of all occupations as themselves.

This paragraph is an excerpt from the executions of Captain John Smith who was found exploring the lands of Virginia.

The author’s purpose is to bring to the audience how the captain was saved by the leader’s daughter herself, from this potential public execution.

The intended audience here is people who are interested in the history of Red Indians and how this incident was turning point. It was after this incident that the natives began to trade with the natives.

Explanation:

This excerpt takes a tone that suggests how the Powhatan, the chief who announced the execution withdraws because his daughter came forward to save the captain by herself.

The emphasis here is on the strength of the power that eventually gives in to the power of love.

The author’s perspective: the king’s change of mind from executing the man to save his life and to be at his service all because his daughter was interested in him.
