in_o the_o aforesaid_a port_n we_o row_v all_o that_o day_n and_o a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o next_o night_n and_o all_o the_o next_o day_n without_o find_v harbour_n or_o any_o sign_n of_o good_a

we_o lie_v make_v fast_o our_o boat_n to_o the_o bank_n of_o one_o of_o those_o land_n and_o in_o these_o nine_o day_n that_o we_o row_v we_o find_v a_o cave_n or_o nest_n of_o tortugaes_n egg_n
