In a little time I began to speak to him; and teach him to speak to me: and first, I let him know his name should be Friday, which was the day I saved his life: I called him so for the memory of the time.
Weldra beproefde ik hem te leeren spreken en mij van hem te doen verstaan. Ik gaf hem vooreerst te kennen, dat hij Vrijdag zou heeten, omdat ik hem op Vrijdag het leven gered had.
