I had pretty good luck thus far, and I made several adventures more, though with but small purchase, yet with good success, but I went in daily dread that some mischief would befall me, and that I should certainly come to be hanged at last.
J'avais eu assez bonne chance jusque-là et j'eus plusieurs autres aventures, de peu de gain il est vrai, mais de bon succès: mais je marchais, dans la crainte journalière que quelque malheur m'arrivât et que je viendrais certainement à être pendue à la fin.
