The Soveraignty and Goodness of God by Mary Rowlandson, who was taken captive by group of Nipmunk and Narragansett Indians (whom she calls such things as “bloody Heathen” and “merciless Heathen” and “infidel”) in Lancaster, MA. Her account is quite lengthy, detailing her 3 months of capitivity, which ended when she was ransomed for £20.
