As our boats came aboard, we weighed and made sail, steering east-south-east as long as the wind held.
In the morning we found we had got four or five leagues to the east of the place where we weighed.

We stood to and fro till eleven; and finding that we lost ground, anchored in forty-two fathom coarse gravelly sand, with some coral.

This morning we thought we saw a sail.
In the afternoon I went ashore on a small woody island, about two leagues from us.

Here I found the greatest number of pigeons that ever I saw either in the East or West Indies, and small cockles in the sea round the island in such quantities that we might have laden the boat in an hour's time.

These were not above ten or twelve pounds' weight.
