With
these
resolutions
in
my
thoughts
,
I
set
myself
upon
the
scout
as
often
as
possible
,
and
indeed
so
often
,
till
I
was
heartily
tired
of
it
;
for
it
was
above
a
year
and
half
that
I
waited
;
and
for
great
part
of
that
time
went
out
to
the
west
end
,
and
to
the
south-west
corner
of
the
island
,
almost
every
day
to
see
for
canoes
,
but
none
appeared
.
This
was
very
discouraging
,
and
began
to
trouble
me
much
;
though
I
can
not
say
that
it
did
in
this
case
,
as
it
had
done
some
time
before
that
,
viz.
,
wear
off
the
edge
of
my
desire
to
the
thing
.
But
the
longer
it
seemed
to
be
delayed
,
the
more
eager
I
was
for
it
.
In
a
word
,
I
was
not
at
first
so
careful
to
shun
the
sight
of
these
savages
,
and
avoid
being
seen
by
them
,
as
I
was
now
eager
to
be
upon
them
.
742
Besides
,
I
fancied
myself
able
to
manage
one
,
nay
,
two
or
three
savages
,
if
I
had
them
,
so
as
to
make
them
entirely
slaves
to
me
,
to
do
whatever
I
should
direct
them
,
and
to
prevent
their
being
able
at
anytime
to
do
me
any
hurt
.
It
was
a
great
while
that
I
pleased
myself
with
this
affair
;
but
nothing
still
presented
.
All
my
fancies
and
schemes
came
to
nothing
,
for
no
savages
came
near
me
for
a
great
while
.
743
About
a
year
and
half
after
I
had
entertained
these
notions
,
and
by
long
musing
had
,
as
it
were
,
resolved
them
all
into
nothing
,
for
want
of
an
occasion
to
put
them
in
execution
,
I
was
surprised
,
one
morning
early
,
with
seeing
no
less
than
five
canoes
all
on
shore
together
on
my
side
the
island
,
and
the
people
who
belonged
to
them
all
landed
,
and
out
of
my
sight
.
The
number
of
them
broke
all
my
measures
;
for
seeing
so
many
,
and
knowing
that
they
always
came
four
,
or
six
,
or
sometimes
more
in
a
boat
,
I
could
not
tell
what
to
think
of
it
,
or
how
to
take
my
measures
to
attack
twenty
or
thirty
men
single-handed
;
so
I
lay
still
in
my
castle
,
perplexed
and
discomforted
.

However
,
I
put
myself
into
all
the
same
postures
for
an
attack
that
I
had
formerly
provided
,
and
was
just
ready
for
action
if
anything
had
presented
.
Having
waited
a
good
while
,
listening
to
hear
if
they
made
any
noise
,
at
length
,
begin
very
impatient
,
I
set
my
guns
at
the
foot
of
my
ladder
,
and
clambered
up
to
the
top
of
the
hill
,
by
my
two
stages
,
as
usual
;
standing
so
,
however
,
that
my
head
did
not
appear
above
the
hill
,
so
that
they
could
not
perceive
me
by
any
means
.
Here
I
observed
,
by
the
help
of
my
perspective
glass
,
that
they
were
no
less
than
thirty
in
number
,
that
they
had
a
fire
kindled
,
that
they
had
had
meat
dressed
.
How
they
had
cooked
it
,
that
I
knew
not
,
or
what
it
was
;
but
they
were
all
dancing
,
in
I
know
not
how
many
barbarous
gestures
and
figures
,
their
own
way
,
round
the
fire
.
745
While
I
was
thus
looking
on
them
,
I
perceived
by
my
perspective
two
miserable
wretches
dragged
from
the
boats
,
where
,
it
seems
,
they
were
laid
by
,
and
were
now
brought
out
for
the
slaughter
.
I
perceived
one
of
them
immediately
fell
,
being
knocked
down
,
I
suppose
,
with
a
club
or
wooden
sword
,
for
that
was
their
way
,
and
two
or
three
others
were
at
work
immediately
,
cutting
him
open
for
their
cookery
,
while
the
other
victim
was
left
standing
by
himself
,
till
they
should
be
ready
for
him
.
In
that
very
moment
this
poor
wretch
seeing
himself
a
little
at
liberty
,
Nature
inspired
him
with
hopes
of
life
,
and
he
started
away
from
them
,
and
ran
with
incredible
swiftness
along
the
sands
directly
towards
me
,
I
mean
towards
that
part
of
the
coast
where
my
habitation
was
.
746
I
was
dreadfully
frighted
(
(
that
I
must
acknowledge
)
)
when
I
perceived
him
to
run
my
way
,
and
especially
when
,
as
I
thought
,
I
saw
him
pursued
by
the
whole
body
;
and
now
I
expected
that
part
of
my
dream
was
coming
to
pass
,
and
that
he
would
certainly
take
shelter
in
my
grove
;
but
I
could
not
depend
,
by
any
means
,
upon
my
dream
for
the
rest
of
it
,
viz.
,
that
the
other
savages
would
not
pursue
him
thither
,
and
find
him
there
.
747
However
,
I
kept
my
station
,
and
my
spirits
began
to
recover
when
I
found
that
there
was
not
above
three
men
that
followed
him
;
and
still
more
was
I
encouraged
when
I
found
that
he
outstripped
them
exceedingly
in
running
,
and
gained
ground
of
them
;
so
that
if
he
could
but
hold
it
for
half
an
hour
,
I
saw
easily
he
would
fairly
get
away
from
them
all
.

There
was
between
them
and
my
castle
the
creek
,
which
I
mentioned
often
at
the
first
part
of
my
story
,
when
I
landed
my
cargoes
out
of
the
ship
;
and
this
I
saw
plainly
he
must
necessarily
swim
over
,
or
the
poor
wretch
would
be
taken
there
.
But
when
the
savage
escaping
came
thither
he
made
nothing
of
it
,
though
the
tide
was
then
up
;
but
plunging
in
,
swam
through
in
about
thirty
strokes
or
thereabouts
,
landed
,
and
ran
on
with
exceeding
strength
and
swiftness
.
When
the
three
persons
came
to
the
creek
,
I
found
that
two
of
them
could
swim
,
but
the
third
could
not
,
and
that
,
standing
on
the
other
side
,
he
looked
at
the
other
,
but
went
no
further
,
and
soon
after
went
softly
back
,
which
,
as
it
happened
,
was
very
well
for
him
in
the
main
.
749
I
observed
that
the
two
who
swam
were
yet
more
than
twice
as
long
swimming
over
the
creek
as
the
fellow
was
that
fled
from
them
.
It
came
now
very
warmly
upon
my
thoughts
,
and
indeed
,
irresistibly
,
that
now
was
my
time
to
get
me
a
servant
,
and
perhaps
a
companion
assistant
,
and
that
I
was
called
plainly
by
Providence
to
save
this
poor
creature
's
life
.
I
immediately
run
down
the
ladders
with
all
possible
expedition
,
fetched
my
two
guns
,
for
they
were
both
but
at
the
foot
of
the
ladders
,
as
I
observed
above
,
and
getting
up
again
,
with
the
same
haste
,
to
the
top
of
the
hill
,
I
crossed
towards
the
sea
,
and
having
a
very
short
cut
,
and
all
down
hill
,
clapped
myself
in
the
way
between
the
pursuers
and
the
pursued
,
hallooing
aloud
to
him
that
fled
,
who
,
looking
back
,
was
at
first
perhaps
as
much
frighted
at
me
as
at
them
;
but
I
beckoned
with
my
hands
to
him
to
come
back
;
750
and
,
in
the
meantime
,
I
slowly
advanced
toward
the
two
that
followed
;
then
rushing
at
once
upon
the
foremost
,
I
knocked
him
down
with
the
stock
of
my
piece
.
I
was
loth
to
fire
,
because
I
would
not
have
the
rest
hear
;
though
,
at
that
distance
,
it
would
not
have
been
easily
heard
,
and
being
out
of
sight
of
the
smoke
too
,
they
would
not
have
easily
known
what
to
make
of
it
.
Having
knocked
this
fellow
down
,
the
other
who
pursued
with
him
stopped
,
as
if
he
had
been
frighted
,
and
I
advanced
a
pace
towards
him
;
but
as
I
came
nearer
,
I
perceived
presently
he
had
a
bow
and
arrow
,
and
was
fitting
it
to
shoot
at
me
;
so
I
was
then
necessitated
to
shoot
at
him
first
,
which
I
did
,
and
killed
him
at
the
first
shot
.
