- It was the sixth of november , in the sixth year of my reign , or my captivity , which you please , that i set out on this voyage , and i found it much longer than i expected ; for though the island it self was not very large , yet when i me to the east side of it , i found a great ledge of rocks lye out above two leagues into the sea , some above water , some under it ; and beyond that , a shoal of sand , lying dry half a league more ; so that i was oblig d to go a great way out to sea to double the point
为此,我先往船上装粮食,装了两打大麦面包其实不如叫大麦饼,又装了一满罐炒米这是我吃得最多的粮食,一小片甘蔗酒,半只山羊肉,还有一些火药和子弹,准备用来打山羊。另外,我还拿出了两件水手值夜穿的衣服,这我前面也提到过,是我在水手箱子中找到的。这两件衣服放到船上,一件可以用来作铺被,一件用来作盖被。 - I cannot express what a satisfaction it was to me , to come into my old hutch , and lye down in my hamock - bed : this little wandring journey , without settled place of abode , had been so unpleasant to me , that my own house , as i call d it to my self , was a perfect settlement to me , compar d to that ; and it rendred every thing about me so comfortable , that i resolv d i would never go a great way from it again , while it should be my lot to stay on the island
这次外出,作了一次小小的漫游,一直居无定所,总感到不称心。现在回到家里,跟出门在外的生活一比,更觉得这个家确实完满无缺,舒适安定。因此我决定,如果我命中注定要在这个岛上度过余生,以后就决不离家走太远了。
