Clothes Can Tell a Lot About a Person
Pris unityrs Freed Chapter 27 summon 217 My island was now peopled, and I apprehension myself re e really(prenominal)y rich in subjects and it was a merry reflection, which I ofttimes made, how like a king I looked. First of comp allowely, the whole country was my own mere property, so that I had an undoubted right of dominion. Secondly, my people were perfectly subjected. I was absolute lord and law defecater, they solely owed their chokes to me, and were ready to flummox down their lives, if there had been occasion of it, for me.It was remark-able, too, we had however threesome subjects, and they were of three different religions. My troops Friday was a Protestant, his experience was a Pagan and a bunsnibal. And the Spaniard was a papist. However, I allowed liberty of conscience throughout my dominions. But this is by the way. -Robinson here start to talk about how hes very comfortable and happy of his island and his people that they allowed their lives to him, and men tion that he allowed liberty of conscience throughout his dominions. religious freedom Chapter 27 scalawag 220-221 He told me they were all of them very civil, honest men, and they were under the greatest distress imaginable, having neither weapons nor clothes, nor any food, but at the mercy and address of the savages out of all hopes of ever returning to their own country and that he was sure, if I would undertake their relief, they would live and die by me. When Robinson was afraid of the Spaniards men and he might be ill used for his humanity to them and put up his case worse than it was before the Spaniard start to tell him about their case and their condition afterwards that Robinson resolved to venture to relieve them. Chapter 27 Page224 I was fast asleep in my chanty one morning, when my man Friday came running in to me, and called loud, Master, master, they are come, they are come I jumped up, and irrespective of risk of exposure I went, as soon as I could get my cl othes on, through my little grove, which, by the way, was by this time grown to be a very thick wood I say, regardless of danger I went without my weapons, which was not my custom to do but I was surprised when, turning my look to the sea, I presently cut a boat at about a league and a half distance, standing in for the shore, with a shoulder-of-mutton sail, as they call it, and the wind blowing pretty fair to strike them in also I observed, presently, that they did not come from that side which the shore lay on, but from the southernmost end of the island.Upon this I called Friday in, and bade him lie close, for these were not the people we looked for, and that we might not know in time whether they were friends or enemies. -Here when Robinson jumped up and went out without his arms. He thought that the boat is for his friend but he pitch out that theyre an Englishmen. He was onfused because they might be his countrymen and friends or enemies and because of that he starts t o observe them. Chapter 28 Page 226-227 This ramble me in mind of the first time when I came on shore, and began to look about me how I gave myself oer for lost how wildly I looked round me what dreadful apprehensions I had and how I lodged in the tree all night for fear of being devoured by wild beasts. -Robinson said that after he saw three prisoners with the Englishmen and after he observed the outrageous usage by the seamen they remind him of himself. Chapter 28 Page 228-229 I came as sound them undiscovered as I could, and therefore, before any of them saw me, I called aloud to them in Spanish, What are ye, gentlemen? They started up at the noise, but were ten times more confounded when they saw me, and the uncouth figure that I made. They made no answer at all, but I thought I perceived them just going to fly from me, when I spoke to them in English. Gentlemen, said I, do not be surprised at me perhaps you may take away a friend near when you did not expect it. He must b e sent directly from nirvana then, said one of them very gravely to me, and pulling off his hat at the same time to me for our condition is quondam(prenominal) the help of man. All help is from heaven, sir, said I, but can you put a stranger in the way to help you? for you seem to be in some great distress. I saw you when you set down and when you seemed to sack up application to the brutes that came with you, I saw one of them lift up his sword to kill you. -Robinson dumbfound the right time when most of the seamen were sleeping and go to the prisoners and talk with them and ask them about their condition and asked them how can help them. After that he found out that one of them is the captain of the boat his men have mutinied against him.And the other his blighter and a passenger. Chapter28 Page230 my conditions are but two first, that while you last out in this island with me, you will not pretend to any authority here and if I put arms in your hands, you will, upon all o ccasions, give them up to me, and do no prejudice to me or mine upon this island, and in the meantime be governed by my orders secondly, that if the ship is or may be recovered, you will carry me and my man to England passage free. -When Robinson agreed to venture upon their deliverance and to recovered the boat . his was his conditions with the captain and the two men and they authentic that and said that they would live and die with him so according to that Robinson gave them arms and pistol and musket so they complete their formulate and succeed and kill the two who was the cause of the revolution and control the rest. Chapter28 Page239 At continuance they came up to the boat but it is impossible to express their confusion when they found the boat fast aground(predicate) in the creek, the tide ebbed out, and their two men gone.We could hear them call one to another in a most lamentable manner, telling one another they were got into an enchanted island that either there were i nhabitants in it, and they should all be murdered, or else there were devils and spirits in it, and they should be all carried away and devoured. -Robinson ordered Friday and the captains mate with him to make a trick for the seamen which is to halloo as loud as they could to draw the seamen as removed into the island and among the woods as possible. So Robinson can go to the boat and deal with the men inside it.And when they came suffer to the boat deadly tired they and didnt find their men. Chapter 28 Page240-241 In a word, they all laid down their arms and begged their lives and I sent the man that had parleyed with them, and two more, who bound them all and then my great army of fifty men, which, with those three, were in all but eightsome, came up and seized upon them, and upon their boat only that I kept myself and one more out of sight for reasons of state. -now each and everyone of the seamen yield to them and they won the battle.Chapter29 Page245 I was at first ready t o sink down with the surprise for I saw my deliverance, indeed, visibly put into my hands, all things easy, and a large ship just ready to carry me away whither I pleased to go. At first, for some time, I was not able to answer him one word but as he had taken me in his arms I held fast by him, or I should have fallen to the ground. -When the captain recover the boat he gave Robinson a boat so he couldnt express his feelings he was so happy and surprised.And he thought the captain was sent to him from heaven to deliver him. Chapter29 Page 246 When we had talked a while, the captain told me he had brought me some little refreshment, such as the ship afforded, and such as the wretches that had been so long his masters had not plundered him of. -Here we notice the chouse between the captain and Robinson from this quotation we read what the captain bring to Robinson many kind of food and cloth. Robinson was very happy with it and as he said he clothed me from head to feet Chapter29 P age247-248 I could not tell what was best for them, unless they had a mind to take their fate in the island. If they desired that, as I had liberty to leave the island, I had some inclination to give them their lives, if they thought they could shift on shore. _Robinson let the prisoners choose their fate to stay in the island if they neediness but the captain doesnt want to leave them in the island. Chapter29 Page248 When they had all declared their willingness to stay, I then told them I would let them into the story of my living there, and put them into the way of making it easy to them.Accordingly, I gave them the whole history of the place, and of my culmination to it showed them my fortifications, the way I made my bread, planted my corn, cured my grapes and, in a word, all that was necessary to make them easy. -When all the prisoners declared their willingness to stay. Robinson start to tell them about the place history and some ways to make their life easier and give them his firearms and description of the way he managed the goats and how to make both butter and cheese and give them some food which the captain had brought him to eat and bade them be sure to sow and increase them .Chapter29 Page250 In this vessel, after a long voyage, I arrived in England the 11th of June, in the family 1687, having been thirty-five years absent. -Robinson left the island The 19th of December in the year 1686 after he had upon it eight and twenty years two months and nineteen and arrived in England the 11th of June in the year 1687.
