Upon this I lowered the top of my sail and lay by, and two of them ran up into the country, and in less than half-an-hour came back, and brought with them two pieces of dried flesh and some corn, such as is the produce of their country; but we neither knew what the one or the other was; however, we were willing to accept it, but how to come at it was our next dispute, for I would not venture on shore to them, and they were as much afraid of us; but they took a safe way for us all, for they brought it to the shore and laid it down, and went and stood a great way off till we fetched it on board, and then came close to us again.
Maar de vraag was hoe er aan te komen, want ik wilde mij niet op het strand tusschen hen wagen, en zij schenen even bevreesd voor ons. Zij wisten echter raad, want zij bragten en legden het aan het strand, gingen een groot eind weegs terug tot wij het aan boord genomen hadden, en kwamen toen weder digter bij ons.
