In this distress, we had besides the terror of the storm, one of our men dyed of the calenture, and one man and the boy wash d over board ; about the 12th day the weather abating a little, the master made an observation as well as he could, and found that he was in about 11 degrees north latitude, but that he was 22 degrees of longitude difference west from cape st. augustino ; so that he found he was gotten upon the coast of guinea, or the north part of brasil, beyond the river amozones, toward that of the river oronoque, commonly call d the great river, and began to consult with me what course he should take, for the ship leaky and very much disabled, and he was going directly back to the coast of brasil
在這危急的情況下，風暴已使我們驚恐萬狀，而這時船上一個人又患熱帶病死去，還有一個人和那個小傭人被大浪卷到海里去了。到第二十二天，風浪稍息船長盡其所能進行了觀察，發現我們的船已刮到北緯十一度左右的地方，但在聖奧古斯丁角以西二十二經度。船長發現，我們的船現在所處的位置在巴西北部或蓋亞那海岸我們已經駛過了亞馬孫河的入海口，靠近那條號稱"大河"的俄利諾科河了。 -
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。 -
I mus d for some time upon what he had said ; and found it was a very rational conclusion ; and that therefore something was to be resolv d on very speedily, as well to draw the men on board into some snare for their surprize, as to prevent their landing upon us, and destroying us ; upon this it presently occurr d to me, that in a little while the ship s crew wondring what was become of their comrades, and of the boat, would certainly come on shore in their other boat, to see for them, and that then perhaps they might come arm d, and be too strong for us ; this he allow d was rational
我對他的話沉思了一會兒，覺得他的結論很有道理，因而覺得必須迅速作出決定。一方面，可以用出其不意的辦法，把船上的那伙人引入某種圈套另一方面，得設法阻止他們上岸攻打我們，消滅我們。這時候，我立刻想到，再過一會兒，大船上的船員不見小船和他們夥伴的動靜，一定會感到奇怪那時，他們就會坐上大船上的另一隻長艇上岸來找他們。 -
I had been now thirteen days on shore, and had been eleven times on board the ship ; in which time i had brought away all that one pair of hands could well be suppos d capable to bring, tho i believe verily, had the calm weather held, i should have brought away the whole ship piece by piece : but preparing the 12th time to go on board, i found the wind begin to rise ; however at low water i went on board, and tho i thought i had rumag d the cabbin so effectually, as that nothing more could be found, yet i discover d a locker with drawers in it, in one of which i found two or three razors, and one pair of large sizzers, with some ten or a dozen of good knives and forks ; in another i found about thirty six pounds value in money, some european coin, some brazil, some pieces of eight, some gold, some silver
可是，我相信，假如天氣好下去，我一定可以把全船拆成一塊塊的木板搬到岸上。當我正準備第十二次上船時，開始颳起了大風，但我還是在退潮時上了船，盡管我以為我已搜遍了全船，不可能再找到什麼有用的東西了，結果還是有新發現。我找到了一個有抽屜的柜子，在一個抽屜里，我找出了兩三把剃刀，一把大剪刀，十幾副刀叉在另一個抽屜里，還發現了許多錢幣，有歐洲的金幣，有巴西的，有西班牙銀幣，我感到好笑。
