This was a surprising discovery, and I was exceeding glad of them; but I was warned by my experience to eat sparingly of them; remembering that when I was ashore in Barbary, the eating of grapes killed several of our Englishmen, who were slaves there, by throwing them into fluxes and fevers.
Dit was eene aangename ontdekking, die mij zeer verheugde, doch de ondervinding had mij geleerd er matig van te eten, want ik herinnerde mij, dat ik tijdens mijn verblijf in Barbarije, er vele Engelsche slaven had zien sterven aan buikloop en koortsen, door te veel druiven te eten.
