. Calvert du Maryland; une histoire de la colonie de Lord Baltimore . n à une date ultérieure, peut-être après que nous soyons bien sur le large océan, où, comme John dit, therewill n'être rien pour nous, qui ne sont pas marins, à faire, sauver la largeur de nos pouces et de souhaiter du temps loin. Nous avons couché à Gravesend toute la nuit, et je n'avais pas fait de yetcome sur le pont à cause d'avoir donné toute l'emprise sur le bois qui pesait fortement sur mes paupières, quand l'Ark et le Dove ont été mis en route pour le voyage de long terme, Ce qu'il est compris ne viendra pas fin toan jusqu'à ce que nous sommes mis à terre dans cette partie du NewWorld appartenant à la famille Calvert. 22 CALVERT

. Calvert of Maryland; a story of Lord Baltimore's colony . n at a later date, perhaps after we are wellout on the broad ocean, where, as John says, therewill be nothing for us, who are not seamen, to do, save twiddle our thumbs and wish time away.

I do not exactly understand why we havereturned so near to our starting-point, nor can Johnexplain it to me. Certain it is, however, that before we were four andtwenty hours in the Channel, one of his Majestys ships, with Edward Watkins on board, came in pursuit, . firing a gim as signal that we must heave the vessel to, as the sailors say when they speak of stopping a ship.
