Ouabi; Or the Virtues of Nature: An Indian Tale in Four Cantos
''Ouábi; Or the Virtues of Nature: An Indian Tale in Four Cantos'' is a narrative poem by Sarah Wentworth Morton that tells the tale of a love triangle between two Native Americans and one white man. The narrative is one of the first works to use Native American themes in American verse. Morton included many notes about Indian councils, war feasts, the Mississippi River, marriage ceremonies, and the Indian concept of revenge.
The Native Americans in this poem are shown to have sympathy savage mode with literary devices and an admiration for their farm setting. ''Ouábi'' also touches on a more modern problem: the passing of simple American virtues weighed down by lavishness and classiness.
==Background ==
Sarah Wentworth Morton had her work published in 1790 under the name ''Philenia''. ''Ouábi'' is not written in the traditional style of most stories, rather it is written in the form of a narrative poem in four parts. The narrative is the first of its kind with an Indian as the hero.
