He, thinking no harm, agreed, and being in the head of the boat, set the sails; and, as I had the helm, I ran the boat out near a league farther, and then brought her to, as if I would fish; when, giving the boy the helm, I stepped forward to where the Moor was, and making as if I stooped for something behind him, I took him by surprise with my arm under his waist, and tossed him clear overboard into the sea.
Yo, que estaba al timón, hice al bote avanzar una legua más y enseguida me puse a fingir que me disponía a pescar. Entonces, entregándole el timón al chico, me acerqué a donde estaba el moro y agachándome como si fuese a recoger algo detrás de él, lo agarré por sorpresa por la entrepierna y lo arrojé al mar por la borda.
