In
the
left
pocket
,
another
engine
of
the
same
kind
.
In
the
smaller
pocket
on
the
right
side
,
were
several
round
flat
pieces
of
white
and
red
metal
,
of
different
bulk
;
some
of
the
white
,
which
seemed
to
be
silver
,
were
so
large
and
heavy
,
that
my
comrade
and
I
could
hardly
lift
them
.
In
the
left
pocket
were
two
black
pillars
irregularly
shaped
:
we
could
not
,
without
difficulty
,
reach
the
top
of
them
,
as
we
stood
at
the
bottom
of
his
pocket
.
One
of
them
was
covered
,
and
seemed
all
of
a
piece
:
but
at
the
upper
end
of
the
other
there
appeared
a
white
round
substance
,
about
twice
the
bigness
of
our
heads
.
Within
each
of
these
was
enclosed
a
prodigious
plate
of
steel
;
which
,
by
our
orders
,
we
obliged
him
to
show
us
,
because
we
apprehended
they
might
be
dangerous
engines
.
He
took
them
out
of
their
cases
,
and
told
us
,
that
in
his
own
country
his
practice
was
to
shave
his
beard
with
one
of
these
,
and
cut
his
meat
with
the
other
.
There
were
two
pockets
which
we
could
not
enter
:
these
he
called
his
fobs
;
they
were
two
large
slits
cut
into
the
top
of
his
middle
cover
,
but
squeezed
close
by
the
pressure
of
his
belly
.
Out
of
the
right
fob
hung
a
great
silver
chain
,
with
a
wonderful
kind
of
engine
at
the
bottom
.
We
directed
him
to
draw
out
whatever
was
at
the
end
of
that
chain
;
which
appeared
to
be
a
globe
,
half
silver
,
and
half
of
some
transparent
metal
;
for
,
on
the
transparent
side
,
we
saw
certain
strange
figures
circularly
drawn
,
and
thought
we
could
touch
them
,
till
we
found
our
fingers
stopped
by
the
lucid
substance
.
He
put
this
engine
into
our
ears
,
which
made
an
incessant
noise
,
like
that
of
a
water-mill
:
and
we
conjecture
it
is
either
some
unknown
animal
,
or
the
god
that
he
worships
;
but
we
are
more
inclined
to
the
latter
opinion
,
because
he
assured
us
,
(
(
if
we
understood
him
right
,
for
he
expressed
himself
very
imperfectly
)
)
that
he
seldom
did
any
thing
without
consulting
it
.
He
called
it
his
oracle
,
and
said
,
it
pointed
out
the
time
for
every
action
of
his
life
.
From
the
left
fob
he
took
out
a
net
almost
large
enough
for
a
fisherman
,
but
contrived
to
open
and
shut
like
a
purse
,
and
served
him
for
the
same
use
:
we
found
therein
several
massy
pieces
of
yellow
metal
,
which
,
if
they
be
real
gold
,
must
be
of
immense
value
.
"
Having
thus
,
in
obedience
to
your
majesty
's
commands
,
diligently
searched
all
his
pockets
,
we
observed
a
girdle
about
his
waist
made
of
the
hide
of
some
prodigious
animal
,
from
which
,
on
the
left
side
,
hung
a
sword
of
the
length
of
five
men
;
and
on
the
right
,
a
bag
or
pouch
divided
into
two
cells
,
each
cell
capable
of
holding
three
of
your
majesty
's
subjects
.
In
one
of
these
cells
were
several
globes
,
or
balls
,
of
a
most
ponderous
metal
,
about
the
bigness
of
our
heads
,
and
requiring
a
strong
hand
to
lift
them
:
the
other
cell
contained
a
heap
of
certain
black
grains
,
but
of
no
great
bulk
or
weight
,
for
we
could
hold
above
fifty
of
them
in
the
palms
of
our
hands
.
"
This
is
an
exact
inventory
of
what
we
found
about
the
body
of
the
man-mountain
,
who
used
us
with
great
civility
,
and
due
respect
to
your
majesty
's
commission
.
Signed
and
sealed
on
the
fourth
day
of
the
eighty-ninth
moon
of
your
majesty
's
auspicious
reign
.

"
When
this
inventory
was
read
over
to
the
emperor
,
he
directed
me
,
although
in
very
gentle
terms
,
to
deliver
up
the
several
particulars
.
He
first
called
for
my
scimitar
,
which
I
took
out
,
scabbard
and
all
.
In
the
mean
time
he
ordered
three
thousand
of
his
choicest
troops
(
who
then
attended
him
)
)
to
surround
me
at
a
distance
,
with
their
bows
and
arrows
just
ready
to
discharge
;
but
I
did
not
observe
it
,
for
mine
eyes
were
wholly
fixed
upon
his
majesty
.
He
then
desired
me
to
draw
my
scimitar
,
which
,
although
it
had
got
some
rust
by
the
sea
water
,
was
,
in
most
parts
,
exceeding
bright
.
I
did
so
,
and
immediately
all
the
troops
gave
a
shout
between
terror
and
surprise
;
for
the
sun
shone
clear
,
and
the
reflection
dazzled
their
eyes
,
as
I
waved
the
scimitar
to
and
fro
in
my
hand
.
His
majesty
,
who
is
a
most
magnanimous
prince
,
was
less
daunted
than
I
could
expect
:
he
ordered
me
to
return
it
into
the
scabbard
,
and
cast
it
on
the
ground
as
gently
as
I
could
,
about
six
feet
from
the
end
of
my
chain
.
The
next
thing
he
demanded
was
one
of
the
hollow
iron
pillars
;
by
which
he
meant
my
pocket
pistols
.
I
drew
it
out
,
and
at
his
desire
,
as
well
as
I
could
,
expressed
to
him
the
use
of
it
;
and
charging
it
only
with
powder
,
which
,
by
the
closeness
of
my
pouch
,
happened
to
escape
wetting
in
the
sea
(
(
an
inconvenience
against
which
all
prudent
mariners
take
special
care
to
provide
,
)
)
I
first
cautioned
the
emperor
not
to
be
afraid
,
and
then
I
let
it
off
in
the
air
.
The
astonishment
here
was
much
greater
than
at
the
sight
of
my
scimitar
.
Hundreds
fell
down
as
if
they
had
been
struck
dead
;
and
even
the
emperor
,
although
he
stood
his
ground
,
could
not
recover
himself
for
some
time
.
I
delivered
up
both
my
pistols
in
the
same
manner
as
I
had
done
my
scimitar
,
and
then
my
pouch
of
powder
and
bullets
;
begging
him
that
the
former
might
be
kept
from
fire
,
for
it
would
kindle
with
the
smallest
spark
,
and
blow
up
his
imperial
palace
into
the
air
.
I
likewise
delivered
up
my
watch
,
which
the
emperor
was
very
curious
to
see
,
and
commanded
two
of
his
tallest
yeomen
of
the
guards
to
bear
it
on
a
pole
upon
their
shoulders
,
as
draymen
in
England
do
a
barrel
of
ale
.
He
was
amazed
at
the
continual
noise
it
made
,
and
the
motion
of
the
minute-hand
,
which
he
could
easily
discern
;
for
their
sight
is
much
more
acute
than
ours
:
he
asked
the
opinions
of
his
learned
men
about
it
,
which
were
various
and
remote
,
as
the
reader
may
well
imagine
without
my
repeating
;
although
indeed
I
could
not
very
perfectly
understand
them
.
I
then
gave
up
my
silver
and
copper
money
,
my
purse
,
with
nine
large
pieces
of
gold
,
and
some
smaller
ones
;
my
knife
and
razor
,
my
comb
and
silver
snuff-box
,
my
handkerchief
and
journal-book
.
My
scimitar
,
pistols
,
and
pouch
,
were
conveyed
in
carriages
to
his
majesty
's
stores
;
but
the
rest
of
my
goods
were
returned
me
.
I
had
as
I
before
observed
,
one
private
pocket
,
which
escaped
their
search
,
wherein
there
was
a
pair
of
spectacles
(
(
which
I
sometimes
use
for
the
weakness
of
mine
eyes
,
)
)
a
pocket
perspective
,
and
some
other
little
conveniences
;
which
,
being
of
no
consequence
to
the
emperor
,
I
did
not
think
myself
bound
in
honour
to
discover
,
and
I
apprehended
they
might
be
lost
or
spoiled
if
I
ventured
them
out
of
my
possession
.
My
gentleness
and
good
behaviour
had
gained
so
far
on
the
emperor
and
his
court
,
and
indeed
upon
the
army
and
people
in
general
,
that
I
began
to
conceive
hopes
of
getting
my
liberty
in
a
short
time
.
I
took
all
possible
methods
to
cultivate
this
favourable
disposition
.
The
natives
came
,
by
degrees
,
to
be
less
apprehensive
of
any
danger
from
me
.
I
would
sometimes
lie
down
,
and
let
five
or
six
of
them
dance
on
my
hand
;
and
at
last
the
boys
and
girls
would
venture
to
come
and
play
at
hide-and-seek
in
my
hair
.
I
had
now
made
a
good
progress
in
understanding
and
speaking
the
language
.
The
emperor
had
a
mind
one
day
to
entertain
me
with
several
of
the
country
shows
,
wherein
they
exceed
all
nations
I
have
known
,
both
for
dexterity
and
magnificence
.
I
was
diverted
with
none
so
much
as
that
of
the
rope-dancers
,
performed
upon
a
slender
white
thread
,
extended
about
two
feet
,
and
twelve
inches
from
the
ground
.
Upon
which
I
shall
desire
liberty
,
with
the
reader
's
patience
,
to
enlarge
a
little
.
