As soon as I perceived they saw me, I shouted as loud as I could, and bade Friday do so too, and running as fast as I could, which, by the way, was not very fast, being loaded with arms as I was, I made directly towards the poor victim, who was, as I said, lying upon the beach or shore, between the place where they sat and the sea.
Appena mi accorsi d’esser veduto, mi diedi a gridare con quanto fiato aveva e Venerdì anche lui; poi correndo forte quanto potei, nè poteva moltissimo con tante armi addosso, andai a dirittura in verso alla povera vittima giacente come dissi presso al lido tra il mare ed il luogo ove i suoi carnefici stavano seduti.
