But

having

gotten

over

these

things

in

some

measure

,

and

having

settled

my

household

stuff

and

habitation

,

made

me

a

table

and

a

chair

,

and

all

as

handsome

about

me

as

I

could

,

I

began

to

keep

my

journal

,

of

which

I

shall

here

give

you

the

copy

(

(

though

in

it

will

be

told

all

these

particulars

over

again

)

)

as

long

as

it

lasted

;

for

,

having

no

more

ink

,

I

was

forced

to

leave

it

off

.

September

30

,

1659

.

--

I

,

poor

miserable

Robinson

Crusoe

,

being

shipwrecked

,

during

a

dreadful

storm

,

in

the

offing

,

came

on

shore

in

this

dismal

unfortunate

island

,

which

I

called

the

Island

of

Despair

,

all

the

rest

of

the

ship

's

company

being

drowned

,

and

myself

almost

dead

.

All

the

rest

of

that

day

I

spent

in

afflicting

myself

at

the

dismal

circumstances

I

was

brought

to

,

viz.

,

I

had

neither

food

,

house

,

clothes

,

weapon

,

or

place

to

fly

to

;

and

in

despair

of

any

relief

,

saw

nothing

but

death

before

me

;

either

that

I

should

be

devoured

by

wild

beasts

,

murdered

by

savages

,

or

starved

to

death

for

want

of

food

.

At

the

approach

of

night

,

I

slept

in

a

tree

for

fear

of

wild

creatures

,

but

slept

soundly

,

though

it

rained

all

night

.

In

the

morning

I

saw

,

to

my

great

surprise

,

the

ship

had

floated

with

the

high

tide

,

and

was

driven

on

shore

again

much

nearer

the

island

;

which

,

as

it

was

some

comfort

on

one

hand

,

for

seeing

her

sit

upright

,

and

not

broken

to

pieces

,

I

hoped

,

if

the

wind

abated

,

I

might

get

on

board

,

and

get

some

food

and

necessaries

out

of

her

for

my

relief

;

so

,

on

the

other

hand

,

it

renewed

my

grief

at

the

loss

of

my

comrades

,

who

,

I

imagined

,

if

we

had

all

stayed

on

board

,

might

have

saved

the

ship

,

or

at

least

that

they

would

not

have

been

all

drowned

as

they

were

;

and

that

had

the

men

been

saved

,

we

might

perhaps

have

built

us

a

boat

out

of

the

ruins

of

the

ship

,

to

have

carried

us

to

some

other

part

of

the

world

.

I

spent

great

part

of

this

day

in

perplexing

myself

on

these

things

;

but

at

length

seeing

the

ship

almost

dry

,

I

went

upon

the

sand

as

near

as

I

could

,

and

then

swam

on

board

;

this

day

also

it

continued

raining

,

though

with

no

wind

at

all

.

From

the

1st

of

October

to

the

24th

.

--

All

these

days

entirely

spent

in

many

several

voyages

to

get

all

I

could

out

of

the

ship

,

which

I

brought

on

shore

,

every

tide

of

flood

,

upon

rafts

.

Much

rain

also

in

these

days

,

though

with

some

intervals

of

fair

weather

;

but

,

it

seems

,

this

was

the

rainy

season

.

October

20

.

--

I

overset

my

raft

,

and

all

the

goods

I

had

got

upon

it

;

but

being

in

shoal

water

,

and

the

things

being

chiefly

heavy

,

I

recovered

many

of

them

when

the

tide

was

out

.

October

25

.

--

It

rained

all

night

and

all

day

,

with

some

gusts

of

wind

,

during

which

time

the

ship

broke

in

pieces

,

the

wind

blowing

a

little

harder

than

before

,

and

was

no

more

to

be

seen

,

except

the

wreck

of

her

,

and

that

only

at

low

water

.

I

spent

this

day

in

covering

and

securing

the

goods

which

I

had

saved

,

that

the

rain

might

not

spoil

them

.

October

26

.

--

I

walked

about

the

shore

almost

all

day

to

find

out

a

place

to

fix

my

habitation

,

greatly

concerned

to

secure

myself

from

an

attack

in

the

night

,

either

from

wild

beasts

or

men

.

Towards

night

I

fixed

upon

a

proper

place

under

a

rock

,

and

marked

out

a

semicircle

for

my

encampment

,

which

I

resolved

to

strengthen

with

a

work

,

wall

,

or

fortification

made

of

double

piles

,

lined

within

with

cables

,

and

without

with

turf

.

From

the

26th

to

the

30th

I

worked

very

hard

in

carrying

all

my

goods

to

my

new

habitation

,

though

some

part

of

the

time

it

rained

exceeding

hard

.

The

31st

,

in

the

morning

,

I

went

out

into

the

island

with

my

gun

to

see

for

some

food

,

and

discover

the

country

;

when

I

killed

a

she-goat

,

and

her

kid

followed

me

home

,

which

I

afterwards

killed

also

,

because

it

would

not

feed

.
