who, in the beginning, were Lamanites;

and had ever since been protected by the Nephites.

they had been kept from taking up arms against their brethren;

for they had taken an oath that they never would shed blood more;

to have fallen into the hands of their brethren,

had it not been for the pity and the exceeding love

which Ammon and his brethren had had for them.
