Friday, being now left to his liberty, pursued the flying wretches, with no weapon in his hand but his hatchet: and with that he despatched those three who as I said before, were wounded at first, and fallen, and all the rest he could come up with: and the Spaniard coming to me for a gun, I gave him one of the fowling-pieces, with which he pursued two of the savages, and wounded them both; but as he was not able to run, they both got from him into the wood, where Friday pursued them, and killed one of them, but the other was too nimble for him; and though he was wounded, yet had plunged himself into the sea, and swam with all his might off to those two who were left in the canoe; which three in the canoe, with one wounded, that we knew not whether he died or no, were all that escaped our hands of one-and-twenty.
Venerdì, che in questo momento non aveva altri miei ordini da eseguire, si diede ad inseguire i fuggiaschi senza altro che il suo segolo, col quale spacciò e que’ tre già menzionati che caddero feriti sin da principio e tutti quelli in cui s’abbattè. Intanto lo Spagnuolo essendo venuto a cercarmi per un moschetto, gli diedi uno de’ miei schioppi da caccia col quale, inseguiti due selvaggi, li ferì entrambi; ma poichè non era nè poteva nello stato suo essere agile al corso, questi si ripararono nella selva, ove Venerdì fu loro addosso e uccisene uno.
