But the only or chiefmischief was the dangerous sea-surge, which at shore all alongst plainlythreatened the overthrow of as many pinnaces and boats as for that timeshould have attempted any landing at all.
Now seeing the expectation of this attempt frustrated by the causesaforesaid, we thought it meeter to fall with the Isle Ferro, to see ifwe could find any better fortune; and coming to the island we landed athousand men in a valley under a high mountain, where we stayed some twoor three hours.... In which time the inhabitants, accompanied with a youngfellow born in England, who dwelt there with them, came unto us, shewingtheir state to be so poor that they were all ready to starve, which wasnot untrue; and therefore without anything gotten, we were all commandedpresently to embark, so as that night we put off to sea south-south-eastalong towards the coast of Barbary.
Upon Saturday in the morning, being the 13th of November, we fell withCape Blank, which is a low land and shallow water, where we catchedstore of fish; and doubling the cape, we put into the bay, where wefound certain French ships of war, whom we entertained with greatcourtesy, and there left them.
