from_o the_o ship_n have_v so_o few_o man_n as_o 17._o in_o all_o and_o some_o of_o they_o very_o weak_a but_o the_o chief_a cause_n why_o we_o spend_v too_o little_a time_n to_o seek_v a_o harbour_n be_v our_o great_a desire_n to_o perform_v the_o discovery_n have_v the_o sea_n open_a in_o all_o that_o part_n and_o still_o likelihood_n of_o a_o passage_n but_o when_o we_o have_v coast_v the_o

be_v bring_v home_o in_o blubber_v and_o the_o fin_n may_v arise_v to_o good_a profit_n another_o hindrance_n will_v be_v because_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o sound_n will_v not_o be_v so_o soon_o
