I
write
a
few
lines
in
haste
to
say
that
I
am
safe
--
and
well
advanced
on
my
voyage
.
This
letter
will
reach
England
by
a
merchantman
now
on
its
homeward
voyage
from
Archangel
;
more
fortunate
than
I
,
who
may
not
see
my
native
land
,
perhaps
,
for
many
years
.
I
am
,
however
,
in
good
spirits
:
my
men
are
bold
and
apparently
firm
of
purpose
,
nor
do
the
floating
sheets
of
ice
that
continually
pass
us
,
indicating
the
dangers
of
the
region
towards
which
we
are
advancing
,
appear
to
dismay
them
.
We
have
already
reached
a
very
high
latitude
;
but
it
is
the
height
of
summer
,
and
although
not
so
warm
as
in
England
,
the
southern
gales
,
which
blow
us
speedily
towards
those
shores
which
I
so
ardently
desire
to
attain
,
breathe
a
degree
of
renovating
warmth
which
I
had
not
expected
.
No
incidents
have
hitherto
befallen
us
that
would
make
a
figure
in
a
letter
.
One
or
two
stiff
gales
and
the
springing
of
a
leak
are
accidents
which
experienced
navigators
scarcely
remember
to
record
,
and
I
shall
be
well
content
if
nothing
worse
happen
to
us
during
our
voyage
.
Adieu
,
my
dear
Margaret
.
Be
assured
that
for
my
own
sake
,
as
well
as
yours
,
I
will
not
rashly
encounter
danger
.
I
will
be
cool
,
persevering
,
and
prudent
.
But
success
"
shall
"
crown
my
endeavours
.
Wherefore
not
?
Thus
far
I
have
gone
,
tracing
a
secure
way
over
the
pathless
seas
,
the
very
stars
themselves
being
witnesses
and
testimonies
of
my
triumph
.
Why
not
still
proceed
over
the
untamed
yet
obedient
element
?
What
can
stop
the
determined
heart
and
resolved
will
of
man
?
My
swelling
heart
involuntarily
pours
itself
out
thus
.
But
I
must
finish
.
Heaven
bless
my
beloved
sister
!

--
So
strange
an
accident
has
happened
to
us
that
I
can
not
forbear
recording
it
,
although
it
is
very
probable
that
you
will
see
me
before
these
papers
can
come
into
your
possession
.
