| 1. | I found besides these chests , a little cask full of liquor , of about twenty gallons , which i got into my boat , with much difficulty ; there were several muskets in a cabin , and a great powder - horn , with about 4 pounds of powder in it ; as for the muskets , i had no occasion for them ; so i left them , but took the powder - horn : i took a fire shovel and tongs , which i wanted extremely ; as also two little brass kettles , a copper pot to make chocolate , and a gridiron ; with this cargo , and the dog , i came away , the tide beginning to make home again ; and the same evening , about an hour within night , i reach d the island again , weary and fatigu d to the last degree
一句话，这种酒非常难喝。可是，我打开那两只大箱子后，找到了几样东西对我非常有用。例如，在一只箱子里，有一只精致的小酒箱，里面的酒瓶也十分别致，装的是上等的提神烈性甜酒，每瓶约三品脱，瓶口上还包着银子还有两罐上好的蜜饯，因为封口很好，咸水没有进去。 |
