But
my
invention
now
run
quite
another
way
;
for
,
night
and
day
I
could
think
of
nothing
but
how
I
might
destroy
some
of
these
monsters
in
their
cruel
,
bloody
entertainment
,
and
,
if
possible
,
save
the
victim
they
should
bring
hither
to
destroy
.
It
would
take
up
a
larger
volume
than
this
whole
work
is
intended
to
be
,
to
set
down
all
the
contrivances
I
hatched
,
or
rather
brooded
upon
,
in
my
thought
,
for
the
destroying
these
creatures
,
or
at
least
fighting
them
so
as
to
prevent
their
coming
hither
any
more
.
642
But
all
was
abortive
;
nothing
could
be
possible
to
take
effect
,
unless
I
was
to
be
there
to
do
it
myself
.
And
what
could
one
man
do
among
them
,
when
perhaps
there
might
be
twenty
or
thirty
of
them
together
,
with
their
darts
,
or
their
bows
and
arrows
,
with
which
they
could
shoot
as
true
to
a
mark
as
I
could
with
my
gun
.
643
Sometimes
I
contrived
to
dig
a
hole
under
the
place
where
they
made
their
fire
,
and
put
in
five
or
six
pounds
of
gunpowder
,
which
,
when
they
kindled
their
fire
,
would
consequently
take
fire
,
and
blow
up
all
that
was
near
it
.
But
as
,
in
the
first
place
,
I
should
be
very
loth
to
waste
so
much
powder
upon
them
,
my
store
being
now
within
the
quantity
of
one
barrel
,
so
neither
I
be
sure
of
its
going
off
at
any
certain
time
,
when
it
might
surprise
them
;
and
,
at
best
,
that
it
would
do
little
more
than
just
blow
the
fire
about
their
ears
,
and
fright
them
,
but
not
sufficient
to
make
them
forsake
the
place
.
So
I
laid
it
aside
,
and
then
proposed
that
I
would
place
myself
in
ambush
in
some
convenient
place
,
with
my
three
guns
all
double-loaded
,
and
,
in
the
middle
of
their
bloody
ceremony
,
let
fly
at
them
,
when
I
should
be
sure
to
kill
or
wound
perhaps
two
or
three
at
every
shot
;
and
then
falling
in
upon
them
with
my
three
pistols
and
my
sword
,
I
made
no
doubt
but
that
if
there
was
twenty
I
should
kill
them
all
.
This
fancy
pleased
my
thoughts
for
some
weeks
;
and
I
was
so
full
of
it
that
I
often
dreamed
of
it
,
and
sometimes
that
I
was
just
going
to
let
fly
at
them
in
my
sleep
.

I
went
so
far
with
it
in
my
imagination
that
I
employed
myself
several
days
to
find
out
proper
places
to
put
myself
in
ambuscade
,
as
I
said
,
to
watch
for
them
;
and
I
went
frequently
to
the
place
itself
,
which
was
now
grown
more
familiar
to
me
;
and
especially
while
my
mind
was
thus
filled
with
thoughts
of
revenge
,
and
of
a
bloody
putting
twenty
or
thirty
of
them
to
the
sword
,
as
I
may
call
it
,
the
horror
I
had
at
the
place
,
and
at
the
signals
of
the
barbarous
wretches
devouring
one
another
,
abated
my
malice
.
645
Well
,
at
length
I
found
a
place
in
the
side
of
the
hill
,
where
I
was
satisfied
I
might
securely
wait
till
I
saw
any
of
their
boats
coming
;
and
might
then
,
even
before
they
would
be
ready
to
come
on
shore
,
convey
myself
,
unseen
,
into
thickets
of
trees
,
in
one
of
which
there
was
a
hollow
large
enough
to
conceal
me
entirely
;
and
where
I
might
sit
and
observe
all
their
bloody
doings
,
and
take
my
full
aim
at
their
heads
,
when
they
were
so
close
together
,
as
that
it
would
be
next
to
impossible
that
I
should
miss
my
shot
,
or
that
I
could
fail
wounding
three
of
four
of
them
at
first
shot
.
646
In
this
place
,
then
,
I
resolved
to
fix
my
design
;
and
,
accordingly
,
I
prepared
two
muskets
and
my
ordinary
fowling-piece
.
The
two
muskets
I
loaded
with
a
brace
of
slugs
each
,
and
four
or
five
smaller
bullets
,
about
the
size
of
pistol-bullets
;
and
the
fowling-piece
I
loaded
with
near
a
handful
of
swan-shot
,
of
the
largest
size
.
I
also
loaded
my
pistols
with
about
four
bullets
each
;
and
in
this
posture
,
well
provided
with
ammunition
for
a
second
and
third
charge
,
I
prepared
myself
for
my
expedition
.
647
After
I
had
thus
laid
the
scheme
of
my
design
,
and
in
my
imagination
put
it
in
practice
,
I
continually
made
my
tour
every
morning
up
to
the
top
of
the
hill
,
which
was
from
my
castle
,
as
I
called
it
,
about
three
miles
,
or
more
,
to
see
if
I
could
observe
any
boats
upon
the
sea
coming
near
the
island
,
or
standing
over
two
or
three
months
,
constantly
kept
my
watch
,
but
came
always
back
without
any
discovery
;
there
having
not
,
in
all
that
time
,
been
the
appearance
,
not
only
on
or
near
the
shore
,
but
not
on
the
whole
ocean
,
so
far
as
my
eyes
or
glasses
could
reach
every
way
.

As
long
as
I
kept
up
my
daily
tour
to
the
hill
to
look
out
,
so
long
also
I
kept
up
the
vigor
of
my
design
,
and
my
spirits
seemed
to
be
all
the
while
in
a
suitable
form
for
so
outrageous
an
execution
as
the
killing
twenty
or
thirty
naked
savages
for
an
offence
which
I
had
not
at
all
entered
into
a
discussion
of
in
my
thoughts
,
any
farther
than
my
passions
were
at
first
fired
by
the
horror
I
conceived
at
the
unnatural
custom
of
that
people
of
the
country
;
who
,
it
seems
,
had-been
suffered
by
Providence
,
in
His
wise
disposition
of
the
world
,
to
have
no
other
guide
than
that
of
their
own
abominable
and
vitiated
passions
;
and
consequently
were
left
,
and
perhaps
had
been
so
for
some
ages
,
to
act
such
horrid
things
,
and
receive
such
dreadful
customs
,
as
nothing
but
nature
entirely
abandoned
of
Heaven
,
and
acted
by
some
hellish
degeneracy
,
could
have
run
them
into
.
But
now
when
,
as
I
have
said
,
I
began
to
be
weary
of
the
fruitless
excursion
which
I
had
made
so
long
and
so
far
every
morning
in
vain
,
so
my
opinion
of
the
action
itself
began
to
alter
;
and
I
began
,
with
cooler
and
calmer
thoughts
,
to
consider
what
it
was
I
was
going
to
engage
in
.
What
authority
or
call
I
had
to
pretend
to
be
judge
and
executioner
upon
these
men
as
criminals
,
whom
Heaven
had
thought
fit
,
for
so
many
ages
,
to
suffer
,
unpunished
,
to
go
on
,
and
to
be
,
as
it
were
,
the
executioners
of
His
judgments
one
upon
another
.
How
far
these
people
were
offenders
against
me
,
and
what
right
I
had
to
engage
in
the
quarrel
of
that
blood
which
they
shed
promiscuously
one
upon
another
.
I
debated
this
very
often
with
myself
,
thus
:
How
do
I
know
what
God
Himself
judges
in
this
particular
case
?
It
is
certain
these
people
either
do
not
commit
this
as
a
crime
;
it
is
not
against
their
own
consciences
'
reproving
,
or
their
light
reproaching
them
.
649
They
do
not
know
it
to
be
an
off
and
then
commit
it
in
defiance
of
Divine
justice
,
as
we
do
in
almost
all
the
sins
we
commit
.
They
think
it
no
more
a
crime
to
kill
a
captive
taken
in
war
than
we
do
to
kill
an
ox
;
nor
to
eat
human
flesh
than
we
do
to
eat
mutton
.
650
When
I
had
considered
this
a
little
;
it
followed
necessarily
that
I
was
certainly
in
the
wrong
in
it
;
that
these
people
were
not
murderers
in
the
sense
that
I
had
before
condemned
them
in
my
thoughts
,
any
more
than
those
Christians
were
murderers
who
often
put
to
death
the
prisoners
taken
in
battle
;
or
more
frequently
,
upon
many
occasions
,
put
whole
troops
of
men
to
the
sword
,
without
giving
quarter
,
though
they
threw
down
their
arms
and
submitted
.
