Had I been recognised in that den my life would not have been worth an hour's purchase; for I have used it before now for my own purposes, and the rascally Lascar who runs it has sworn to have vengeance upon me.
Si me hubieran reconocido en aquel antro, mi vida no habría valido ni la tarifa de una hora, porque ya lo he utilizado antes para mis propios fines, y el bandido del dueño, un antiguo marinero de las Indias Orientales, ha jurado vengarse de mí.
