This duty done, I was to join my companions on the raft, which had not yet been unloaded; we should then push off as far as we could and avoid the dangers arising from the explosion, the effects of which were not likely to be confined to the rock itself.
Una vez hecho esto, debería reunirme a mis compañeros sobre la balsa que no había sido descargada, y enseguida nos alejaríamos, con el fin de substraemos a los peligros de la explosión, cuyos efectos podrán no limitarse al interior del macizo.
