They were just going into the boat when Friday and the mate hallooed; and they presently heard them, and answering, ran along the shore westward, towards the voice they heard, when they were stopped by the creek, where the water being up, they could not get over, and called for the boat to come up and set them over; as, indeed, I expected.
Los escucharon y, en el acto, les contestaron y comenzaron a correr a lo largo de la costa en dirección oeste, hacia el lugar de donde provenía la voz. Se detuvieron cuando llegaron al río pues estaba demasiado crecido en ese momento como para cruzarlo.
