The poor creature, who had at a distance, indeed, seen me kill the savage, his enemy, but did not know, nor could imagine how it was done, was sensibly surprised, trembled, and shook, and looked so amazed that I thought he would have sunk down.
Quel povero selvaggio che dianzi m’avea veduto, veramente in distanza, uccidere il selvaggio suo nemico, ma non seppe o non potè immaginare come ciò fosse avvenuto, or rimase immerso in una più penosa sorpresa. Tremava, era convulso, mandava occhiate sì smarrite che credei vederlo svenire.
