Having secured the boat, beat my hands
heartily upon my breast, and fell 10 pacing q
little level of ice while considered what
should do. The coastr-I cannot but speak Of
this frozen territory as land-went in q gen
tie slope behind me 10 tho height CT about
thirty feet; the ground was greatly broken
with rocks and bowlders and sharp points,
whence suspected many fssures in which
the snow might not be 20 hard but that I
might sink deep enough to be smothercd I
saw no cave nor hollow that could make a
bedroom Of, and the improved circulation Of
my blood giving me spirits enough to resolve
quickly made up my mind to use my boat
as bed.
So went TO work. took the oar and
jammed IL into such another crevice as the
mast stood in, and to 1t secured the boat by
another line. This moorcd her very safely.
There was as good promise Of fair, quiet
night as might count upon in these treacher-
Gus latitudes; the haven In which the boat lay
was sheltered, and the water almost still; and
this, / reckoned, would hold while tho breeze
hung northerly and the swell rolled from the
northeast spread the sail over the seats,
which served as beams for the support Of
this little ceiling of canvas, and enough Of It
remained to supply me with pillow and to
cover my lips. I fell to this work while
there was light, and when had prepared
my habitation took bottle of ale and a
handful Of victuals ashore and made my sup
per, walking briskly while ate and drank.
By this timo the moon was up; but the rocks
hid the side of the sea sho rode over, and her
face was not to be viewed from where was
until she had marched two thirds of her path
to the meridian.
After q good look seaward and at tho hea-
vens to satisfy myself on the subject Of the
weather, and after careful inspection Of
the moorings of the boat, entered her, feel
ing very sure that IL q sea set In from the
west or south and tumbled her, the motion
would quickly arouse me; and getting under
the roof Of sail, with my legs along tho bot
tom and my back against the stem, which
had bolstered with the slack Of tho canvas,
commended myself to God, folded my arms,
and went to sleep.
