Էջ x - All causes shall give way ; I am in blood Stepp'd in so far, that, should I wade no more, Returning were as tedious as go o'er : Strange things I have in head, that will to hand ; Which must be acted, ere they may be scann'd.
Էջ 247 - I came to my castle, for so I think I called it ever after this, I fled into it like one pursued. Whether I went over by the ladder, as first...
Էջ 69 - I had so much presence of mind as well as breath left, that, seeing myself nearer the main land than I expected, I got upon my feet, and endeavoured to make on towards the land as fast as I could, before another wave should return and take me up again.

Էջ 246 - I came home to my fortification, not feeling, as we say, the ground I went on, but terrified to the last degree, looking behind me at every two or three steps, mistaking every bush and tree, and fancying every stump at a distance to be a man.
Էջ 245 - It happened one day, about noon, going towards my boat, I was exceedingly surprised with the print of a man's naked foot on the shore, which was very plain to be seen on the sand.
Էջ 246 - ... looking behind me at every two or three steps, mistaking every bush and tree, and fancying every stump at a distance to be a man.
