And having cut me a short stick, like a truncheon, for my defence, I took up my lodging; and having been excessively fatigued, I fell fast asleep, and slept as comfortably as, I believe, few could have done in my condition, and found myself more refreshed with it than, I think, I ever was on such an occasion.
Comme j'étais extrêmement fatigué, je tombai dans un profond sommeil, et je dormis confortablement comme peu de personnes, je pense, l'eussent pu faire en ma situation, et je m'en trouvai plus soulagé que je crois l'avoir jamais été dans une occasion opportune.
