to_o myself_o i_o see_v the_o creature_n which_o bound_v and_o it_o cast_v water_n out_o of_o its_o nostril_n with_o horrible_a hissing_n and_o afterward_o sink_v down_o again_o clear_a under_o the_o water_n the_o bird_n which_o pursue_v i_o be_v retire_v so_o that_o i_o find_v myself_o alone_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o water_n without_o any_o other_o assistance_n than_o my_o piece_n of_o wood_n and_o without_o any_o other_o think_v than_o that_o of_o death_n which_o i_o well_o see_v can_v not_o be_v avoid_v i_o be_v so_o spend_v with_o the_o fatigue_n which_o i_o have_v undergo_v and_o so_o incommode_v with_o the_o water_n which_o i_o have_v swallow_v down_o that_o no_o one_o will_v think_v humanity_n capable_a of_o resist_v so_o great_a evil_n in_o this_o estate_n i_o remember_v my_o fruit_n and_o eat_v two_o of_o they_o after_o which_o i_o find_v it_o impossible_a to_o avoid_v sleep_v so_o that_o i_o be_v oblige_v to_o turn_v i_o upon_o my_o plank_n with_o my_o face_n upward_o to_o be_v in_o some_o manner_n without_o danger_n of_o be_v strangle_v by_o the_o water_n i_o close_v my_o eye_n and_o know_v not_o how_o long_o i_o tarry_v in_o this_o posture_n but_o i_o waken_v at_o last_o by_o the_o ray_n of_o the_o sun_n which_o dart_v very_o bright_a upon_o my_o face_n and_o i_o find_v that_o i_o be_v drive_v by_o the_o wind_n north-east_n with_o great_a swiftness_n although_o the_o sea_n be_v pretty_a smooth_a i_o think_v my_o heart_n and_o mind_n in_o a_o very_a calm_a posture_n and_o a_o little_a after_o i_o find_v myself_o very_o near_o a_o country_n whither_o the_o wind_n have_v drive_v i_o my_o crooked_a finger_n be_v so_o clinch_v to_o my_o plank_n that_o i_o have_v much_o ado_n to_o disentangle_v they_o to_o get_v upon_o shore_n my_o clothes_n be_v so_o heavy_a with_o the_o water_n which_o they_o have_v drink_v up_o that_o i_o can_v scarce_o carry_v they_o the_o toss_n of_o the_o sea_n and_o salt_n water_n which_o i_o have_v drink_v have_v so_o distemper_v my_o head_n that_o i_o find_v much_o ado_n to_o endure_v it_o i_o be_v like_o a_o man_n who_o the_o excess_n of_o wine_n or_o many_o turn_n have_v make_v giddy_a and_o render_v incapable_a of_o do_v any_o thing_n to_o the_o purpose_n all_o that_o i_o can_v do_v be_v to_o trail_v my_o plank_n at_o a_o certain_a distance_n where_o i_o lay_v i_o down_o and_o soon_o fall_v a_o sleep_n my_o sleep_n in_o some_o measure_n settle_v my_o brain_n and_o dry_v my_o clothes_n which_o i_o rub_v to_o make_v they_o less_o incommodious_a i_o remember_v i_o have_v yet_o one_o of_o these_o fruit_n which_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o and_o have_v eat_v it_o i_o perceive_v that_o want_n of_o nourishment_n be_v the_o principal_a cause_n of_o my_o extreme_a weakness_n i_o then_o advance_v to_o seek_v out_o something_o else_o and_o after_o have_v march_v about_o 200_o pace_n i_o find_v many_o tree_n but_o i_o perceive_v no_o fruit_n which_o make_v i_o fall_v into_o a_o profound_a rave_v though_o i_o forbear_v not_o all_o the_o time_n to_o march_v on_o and_o as_o i_o go_v i_o look_v downward_o and_o see_v two_o fruit_n upon_o the_o earth_n which_o be_v cover_v with_o leaf_n i_o take_v they_o as_o a_o present_a from_o heaven_n and_o after_o i_o have_v eat_v one_o of_o they_o i_o perceive_v my_o strength_n to_o increase_v which_o encourage_v i_o to_o advance_v on_o my_o way_n and_o to_o examine_v the_o place_n where_o i_o may_v be_v which_o i_o find_v to_o be_v about_o 35_o deg_n south_n i_o see_v many_o sign_n which_o persuade_v i_o that_o the_o firm_a land_n be_v not_o far_o off_o the_o water_n be_v very_o fresh_a the_o wind_n blue_a south_n and_o i_o remark_v that_o they_o be_v very_o much_o interrupt_v i_o even_o perceive_v certain_a extraordinary_a

next_o chapter_n i_o can_v forbear_v tell_v you_o here_o that_o the_o australians_n be_v so_o far_o from_o eat_v flesh_n that_o they_o can_v conceive_v how_o any_o man_n can_v find_v in_o his_o heart_n to_o do_v it_o the_o reason_n they_o allege_v for_o it_o be_v first_o that_o sort_n of_o nourishment_n can_v agree_v with_o humanity_n that_o ought_v natural_o to_o be_v averse_a from_o all_o cruelty_n second_o because_o the_o flesh_n of_o animal_n very_o much_o resemble_v that_o of_o man_n it_o follow_v that_o they_o which_o can_v have_v the_o stomach_n to_o eat_v of_o the_o flesh_n of_o the_o former_a will_v easy_o be_v induce_v to_o eat_v without_o difficulty_n of_o the_o latter_a two_o three_o because_o the_o digestion_n of_o it_o be_v dangerous_a and_o we_o can_v eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o a_o animal_n without_o contract_v some_o of_o its_o inclination_n four_a because_o the_o flesh_n of_o a_o brute_n be_v so_o modify_v for_o that_o brutus_n nature_n that_o we_o can_v eat_v of_o it_o without_o become_v proportionable_o more_o or_o less_o like_a that_o brute_n as_o we_o eat_v more_o or_o less_o of_o its_o flesh_n five_o because_o a_o beast_n be_v a_o thing_n so_o much_o beneath_o we_o that_o it_o be_v better_o for_o a_o man_n not_o to_o be_v at_o all_o than_o to_o debase_v his_o noble_a nature_n so_o far_o as_o to_o adulterate_v it_o with_o the_o mixture_n of_o

other_o fish_n there_o but_o a_o certain_a sort_n of_o eel_n of_o three_o or_o four_o ell_n long_o and_o some_o small_a finny-footed_n creature_n like_o our_o hedge_n hog_n of_o a_o colour_n as_o

since_o this_o last_o hundred_o year_n be_v a_o certain_a proof_n of_o it_o and_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v doubt_v but_o if_o we_o can_v have_v the_o like_a traffic_n with_o the_o australian_n we_o shall_v still_o gain_v more_o considerable_a advantage_n than_o by_o any_o other_o know_v commerce_n i_o shall_v only_o mention_v four_o of_o those_o advantage_n which_o we_o shall_v infallible_o reap_v by_o such_o a_o trade_n among_o the_o beast_n that_o i_o have_v describe_v the_o hum_n will_v render_v we_o inestimable_a service_n because_o they_o will_v ease_v our_o man_n of_o the_o extraordinary_a pain_n they_o be_v fain_o to_o take_v in_o dig_v and_o plough_v up_o the_o earth_n but_o the_o suef_n will_v prove_v still_o much_o more_o profitable_a to_o we_o than_o they_o for_o

they_o can_v endure_v a_o whole_a day_n without_o eat_v and_o in_o the_o most_o difficult_a journey_n they_o will_v travel_v 18_o or_o 20_o league_n outright_o without_o any_o need_n of_o stop_v to_o bait_v it_o be_v easy_a to_o guess_v what_o profit_n the_o merchant_n will_v get_v by_o these_o creature_n for_o they_o will_v not_o need_v to_o be_v at_o the_o ten_o part_n of_o the_o charge_n they_o now_o be_v at_o for_o the_o carriage_n of_o their_o good_n two_o of_o these_o animal_n be_v able_a to_o carry_v as_o much_o as_o a_o large_a wagon_n draw_v by_o six_o horse_n the_o australians_n that_o have_v no_o need_n of_o any_o traffic_n be_v excusable_a for_o make_v no_o more_o account_n of_o these_o beast_n but_o the_o european_n will_v find_v it_o worth_a their_o while_n to_o get_v some_o of_o they_o bring_v over_o whatever_o price_n they_o cost_v but_o yet_o all_o this_o be_v nothing_o to_o the_o gain_n the_o european_n may_v draw_v from_o those_o bird_n of_o prey_n of_o which_o i_o have_v speak_v for_o those_o bird_n though_o they_o be_v very_o cruel_a when_o wild_a yet_o may_v be_v tame_v and_o make_v as_o gentle_a as_o any_o of_o our_o most_o domestic_a animal_n when_o i_o come_v first_o into_o australia_n they_o have_v one_o of_o they_o which_o they_o keep_v in_o one_o of_o the_o sezain_n that_o carry_v a_o man_n on_o his_o back_n with_o more_o ease_n than_o a_o spanish_a courser_n they_o be_v to_o be_v mount_v behind_o their_o wing_n and_o the_o feather_n on_o their_o back_n supply_v the_o place_n of_o a_o very_a commodious_a cushion_n and_o instead_o

100_o league_n a_o day_n without_o any_o incommodity_n without_o fear_n without_o danger_n and_o without_o be_v trouble_v with_o the_o opposition_n of_o river_n wood_n mountain_n or_o any_o other_o obstacle_n or_o ill_a rencontre_n in_o his_o way_n but_o two_o reason_n however_o oblige_v the_o australians_n to_o leave_v off_o the_o use_n of_o they_o which_o will_v be_v of_o no_o force_n in_o europe_n the_o first_o be_v because_o those_o bird_n be_v extreme_o hot_a with_o lust_n after_o carnal_a conjunction_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o sometime_o they_o will_v carry_v their_o australian_n rider_n into_o some_o island_n where_o they_o smell_v a_o female_a of_o their_o kind_n where_o they_o be_v devour_v by_o the_o wild_a bird_n the_o second_o be_v because_o they_o be_v persuade_v that_o the_o tame_a bird_n of_o that_o kind_n be_v the_o chief_a occasion_n that_o entice_v the_o wild_a one_o to_o come_v in_o such_o number_n into_o their_o country_n where_o they_o make_v such_o havoc_n which_o consideration_n can_v

and_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n if_o the_o australians_n be_v force_v sometime_o to_o maintain_v great_a war_n to_o defend_v a_o country_n against_o the_o invasion_n of_o those_o foreign_a
