They needed very few arguments to persuade a single man to yield, when he saw five men upon him and his comrade knocked down: besides, this was, it seems, one of the three who were not so hearty in the mutiny as the rest of the crew, and therefore was easily persuaded not only to yield, but afterwards to join very sincerely with us.
No eran necesarios demasiados argumentos para que un hombre solo se rindiera frente a cinco, cuando su compañero se hallaba derribado en el suelo. Además, al pare cer, este era uno de los tres que no había participado activamente en el motín, como el resto de la tripulación, por lo que, pudimos persuadirlo fácilmente, no solo de rendirse, sino de unirse sinceramente a nosotros.
