come_v up_o the_o hill_n behind_o for_o have_v more_o man_n to_o carry_v my_o chair_n than_o they_o have_v i_o be_v there_o soon_o it_o be_v not_o long_o that_o i_o may_v perceive_v the_o say_a fog_n

both_o refresh_v our_o man_n and_o repair_v our_o batter_a vessel_n my_o opinion_n be_v clean_o contrary_a to_o they_o for_o i_o believe_v our_o best_a course_n be_v to_o steer_v our_o course_n

shall_v be_v return_v that_o there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o the_o road_n which_o i_o propose_v unto_o they_o consider_v simple_o in_o itself_o be_v not_o without_o comparison_n the_o better_a and_o the_o more_o expedit_fw-la to_o sail_v out_o of_o the_o mediterranean_a sea_n and_o gain_v the_o ocean_n because_o say_v i_o that_o although_o we_o have_v the_o brieze_n from_o off_o the_o earth_n as_o long_o as_o we_o be_v upon_o the_o coast_n of_o syria_n and_o egypt_n we_o shall_v not_o have_v they_o at_o all_o while_n we_o sail_v upon_o the_o coast_n of_o lybia_n where_o there_o be_v those_o fearful_a sand_n which_o they_o call_v the_o syrtes_n which_o be_v of_o a_o great_a extent_n the_o say_a coast_n have_v no_o humidity_n for_o there_o be_v neither_o tree_n nor_o herb_n grow_v

no_o humidity_n the_o sun_n can_v attract_v to_o make_v a_o wind_n so_o that_o we_o shall_v never_o find_v there_o special_o in_o summer_n time_n any_o other_o wind_n but_o that_o regular_a wind_n which_o blow_v from_o east_n to_o west_n according_a to_o the_o course_n of_o the_o sun_n who_o be_v the_o father_n of_o wind_n unless_o some_o extraordinary_a hap_n either_o from_o the_o coast_n of_o

we_o be_v near_o the_o syrtes_n the_o wind_n of_o italy_n will_v be_v most_o dangerous_a unto_o we_o and_o expose_v we_o to_o shipwreck_n i_o reason_v so_o according_a to_o natural_a cause_n while_o
