I listened till the last of the song, and was about to turn away; but, the ape running out of the summer-house at the time, the jester put his head through the entrance, with a "Back! Pompon! back!" and caught sight of me. In a moment he was by my side, and, willy-nilly, forced me into the summer-house. "The very man I wanted," he said. "I came here to think of you.

He took in his cargo at Jamaica; put to sea again, 6th April, 1731, and proceeded on the Voyage homewards; with indifferent winds for the first fortnight.
