But I was not perfectly easy at lying so open; for, as I had managed myself before, I was in a perfect enclosure; whereas now I thought I lay exposed, and open for anything to come in upon me; and yet I could not perceive that there was any living thing to fear, the biggest creature that I had yet seen upon the island being a goat.
Pure non mi trovai troppo contento di essermi messo così allo scoperto, perchè di riparato come io viveva in una perfetta chiusura, adesso al contrario io mi trovava più indifeso. Ad ogni modo non sapeva persuadermi che in quest’isola vi fossero viventi da far paura; i più grossi che avessi veduti erano capre.
