As soon as I saw them shipped and gone, I took two guns upon my shoulders, and two pistols in my girdle, and my great sword by my side without a scabbard, and with all the speed I was able to make went away to the hill where I had discovered the first appearance of all; and as soon as I get thither, which was not in less than two hours (for I could not go quickly, being so loaded with arms as I was), I perceived there had been three canoes more of the savages at that place; and looking out farther, I saw they were all at sea together, making over for the main.
Amint eltávolodtak, fogtam két puskát, két pisztolyt, a tőrömet, és arra a helyre siettem, ahol először felfedeztem a szigetre látogató kannibálok jeleit. Felszerelésem miatt legalább két órámba telt, amire odaértem a hegytetőre, ahonnan három további kenut pillantottam meg a tengeren.
