An irresistible reluctance continued to going home; and as I stayed away a while, the remembrance of the distress I had been in wore off, and as that abated, the little motion I had in my desires to return wore off with it, till at last I quite laid aside the thoughts of it, and looked out for a voyage.
Aún me sentía renuente a volver a casa y, a medida que demoraba mi decisión, se iba disipando el recuerdo de mis desgracias, lo cual, a su vez, hacía disminuir aún más mis débiles intenciones de regresar a casa. Finalmente, me olvidé de ello y me dispuse a buscar la forma de viajar.
