Question

Read the following excerpt from a made in response to Christian missionaries in 1805:

Answer 1

B. He repeats the word "we" to show that he and his people will act as one.

In the passage, he uses "we" five times in only 3 sentences. When he uses the word "we" it is to show what he and the people will do when he says "we will wait" and "we will then consider". This repetition with the statements of action show that he and his people will act as one if anything should happen. He does not use "Brother" to show them to be related but rather as a sign of respect. "Them" is not used to show distrust. Instead it separates his neighbors for him and his people by calling the white people "them". The repetition of the word "you" does not seem to have an effect rather than to address his audience.
