Für Segler leben unter vier Staaten. o ihre Jungen füttern. Die ganze Masse in einem langsamen und feierlichen Weise verschoben. Die Männchen wurden ausgeschlossen. Ein Anblick, ich shallnever vergessen! Dunkle schnell folgt Sonnenuntergang. In dem Wunsch, die Wachsamkeit auf boardmy kümmerlich Flotte beobachtet zu prüfen, ich heimlich, hinter der Biegung des Flusses, eine Malaiische mit einem cocoanut - öl Lampe, beplaced mit brennenden Docht so wie unten zu Andie schließen Büsche schweben. Der Strom war frisch. Um 21.00 Uhr hörte die ersten Hagel; der zweite war Juli. Durch den Bericht einer Muskete und so repeateddown der Linie. Meine imaginären Feind schwebte Es tosea,

A sailor's life under four sovereigns . o feeding their young.The whole mass moved in a slow and solemn manner.The males were excluded. A sight that I shallnever forget! Dark quickly follows sunset. Wishing to test the alertness observed on boardmy puny fleet, I sent secretly, beyond the bend ofthe river, a Malay with a cocoanut-oil lamp, to beplaced with lighted wick so as to float down close tothe bushes. The stream was running fresh. About 9 p.m. heard the first hail; the second was July.followed by the report of a musket, and so repeateddown the line.
