  1. We went frequently out with this boat a fishing, and as i was most dextrous to catch fish for him, he never went without me : it happen d that he had appointed to go out in this boat, either for pleasure or for fish, with two or three moors of some distinction in that place, and for whom he had provided extraordinarily ; and had therefore sent on board the boat over night, a larger store of provisions than ordinary ; and had order d me to get ready three fuzees with powder and shot, which were on board his ship ; for that they design d some sport of fowling as well as fishing

    有一次，他約定要與當地兩三位頗有身份的摩爾人坐我們的長舢舨出海遊玩或捕魚。為了款待客人，他預備了許多酒菜食品，並在頭天晚上就送上了船。他還吩咐我從他大船上取下三支短槍放到舢舨上，把火藥和子彈準備好。
  2. My next care was for some ammunition and arms ; there were two very good fowling - pieces in the great cabbin, and two pistols, these i secur d first, with some powder - horns, and a small bag of shot, and two old rusty swords ; i knew there were three barrels of powder in the ship, but knew not where our gunner had stow d them, but with much search i found them, two of them dry and good, the third had taken water, those two i got to my raft, with the arms, and now i thought my self pretty well freighted, and began to think how i should get to shore with them, having neither sail, oar, or rudder, and the least cap full of wind would have overset all my navigation

    這時，我只好用槳作錨，把木排一邊固定在一片靠近河岸的平坦的沙灘上，以等待潮水漲高，漫過沙灘再說。后來，潮水果然繼續上漲，漫上沙灘，等水漲得夠高了，我就把木排撐過去，因為木排吃水有一尺多深。到了那兒，我用兩支斷槳插入沙灘里，前後各一支，把木排停泊好，單等潮水退去，就可把木排和貨物品平安安地留在岸上了。
  3. Another trick i try d upon him, which he innocently came into also ; his name was ismael, who they call muly or moely, so i call d to him, moely said i, our patroon s guns are on board the boat, can you not get a little powder and shot, it may be we may kill some alcamies a fowl like our curlieus for our selves, for i know he keeps the gunners stores in the ship

    接著我又想出了一個新花樣，他居然天真地上了圈套。這個摩爾人的名字叫伊斯瑪，但大家叫他馬利或莫利，所以我也這樣叫他。 "莫利， "我說， "我們主人的槍在船上，你去搞點火藥和鳥槍彈來，也許我們還能給自己打幾只水鳥呢！

  8. I had heard the word, and i knew it stood for a horrible kind of punishment common enough among the buccaneers, in which the offender is put ashore with a little powder and shot, and left behind on some desolate and distant island

    我聽過這個字眼，我因此知道這是海盜中相當普通但是可怕的一種懲罰手段，只給受罰者一點彈藥，然後將他甩在某個遙遠的荒島上。

    我們留下相當多的彈藥，一大堆腌羊肉一部分藥品以及其他必需品工具衣服一張多餘的帆和十來英尺繩子。根據大夫特別提出的建議，我們還留下了相當多的煙草。
  10. I took such care of it, that it liv d, and the leg grew well, and as strong as ever ; but by my nursing it so long it grew tame, and fed upon the little green at my door, and would not go away : this was the first time that i entertain d a thought of breeding up some tame creatures, that i might have food when my powder and shot was all spent

    附記：在我精心照料下，受傷的小山羊活下來了，腿也長好了，而且長得很結實。由於我長期撫養，小山羊漸漸馴服起來，整日在我住所門前的草地上吃草，不肯離開。這誘發了我一個念頭：我可以飼養一些易於馴服的動物，將來一旦彈藥用完也不愁沒有東西吃。
  11. I could have shot as many as i pleas d, but was very sparing of my powder and shot ; and therefore had more mind to kill a she goat, if i could, which i could better feed on ; and though there were many goats here more than on my side the island, yet it was with much more difficulty that i could come near them, the country being flat and even, and they saw me much sooner than when i was on the hill

    這兒鳥那麼多，我本可以愛打多少就打多少，但我不想浪費彈藥。要是能打到一隻山羊就能吃得更好。可是，這兒山羊雖比我住的那邊多，但因這一帶地勢平坦，稍一靠近它們就被發現，不像那邊我埋伏在山上難以被山羊察覺。
  12. Another reflection was of great use to me, and doubtless would be so to any one that should fall into such distress as mine was ; and this was, to compare my present condition with what i at first expected it should be ; nay, with what it would certainly have been, if the good providence of god had not wonderfully order d the ship to be cast up nearer to the shore, where i not only could come at her, but could bring what i got out of her to the shore, for my relief and comfort ; without which, i had wanted for tools to work, weapons for defence, or gun - powder and shot for getting my food

    還有一種想法對我也大有好處，而且，這種反省毫無疑問對遇到我這種災難的其他任何人也一定大有用處。那就是拿我目前的情況跟我當初所預料的情況加以比較，或者不如說，跟我必然會遭遇的境況加以比較。上帝神奇地作出了目前這樣的安排，把大船沖近海岸，讓我不僅能靠近它，還能從上面取下所需要的東西搬到岸上，使我獲得救濟和安慰。
  13. While this was doing, i was not altogether careless of my other affairs ; for i had a great concern upon me, for my little herd of goats ; they were not only a present supply to me upon every occasion, and began to be sufficient to me, without the expence of powder and shot ; but also without the fatigue of hunting after the wild ones, and i was loth to lose the advantage of them, and to have them all to nurse up over again

    進行上述工作時，我也沒有忽略別的事情。我仍十分關心我的羊群，它們隨時可以充分滿足我的需要，使我不必浪費火藥和子彈，也省得費力氣去追捕野山羊。我當然不願放棄自己馴養山羊所提供的便利，免得以後再從頭開始馴養。

  16. In this journey my dog surpriz d a young kid, and seiz d upon it, and i running in to take hold of it, caught it, and sav d it alive from the dog : i had a great mind to bring it home if i could ; for i had often been musing, whether it might not be possible to get a kid or two, and so raise a breed of tame goats, which might supply me when my powder and shot should be all spent

    我連忙跑過去奪過小羊，把它從狗嘴裡救了下來。我以前經常想到，要是能馴養幾頭山羊，讓其繁殖，那麼，到我彈盡糧絕時，可以殺羊充饑。因此，我決定把這頭小山羊牽回家去飼養。
  17. Shot at with real guns. and that white powder ? that was cocaine

  18. It was a good while before they wou d feed, but throwing them some sweet corn, it tempted them and they began to be tame ; and now i found that if i expected to supply my self with goat - flesh when i had no powder or shot left, breeding some up tame was my only way, when perhaps i might have them about my house like a flock of sheep

    后來，我給它們吃一些穀粒，因為味道甜美，它們很喜歡吃，就慢慢馴順起來。現在我知道，如果彈藥用盡之後還想吃山羊肉，唯一的辦法就是馴養一些山羊。將來也許會在我屋子周圍有一大群山羊呢！
