It indicates that the Lords’ commitment to the Five Nations must be unbreakable.

There are a number of documents which tells about the founding of Iroquois. Arthur C. Parker, Archeologist of the State Museum in New York gave a new version of it in “The Constitution of the Five Nations - or - The Iroquois Book of the Great Law.”

A Confederacy of the five nations was founded by Dekanawida in which while holding the hands of the other four members, he spoke these lines. He focuses on this issue that in any case, they would not leave the hands as this may hurt and make a loss to everyone. He adds that if hands are joined, the falling tree (problems) would make no effect on them. Only they have to be firm and keep patience and remain themselves in a group.

Has anyone read Romeo and Juliet?
Vaselesa [24]
Some ideas for this could be: Romeo and Paris have similar wealth and social status, different ages of the two of them, Romeo changes his love interests but Paris focuses solely on Juliet through the entire work, and along those lines, Romeo is emotionally unstable whereas Paris is relatively confident. Good luck!
