帆柱の具がないので大いに困った。その時に三つの天の幸いがあって岸に到達することができた。一つは海上が平らで波がないこと、二つ目は潮水が満ちて進み岸に向かうこと、三つ目は微風があってゆっくりと送り風が吹くことであった。やや岸に近づいた頃、大波が起こり岩に衝突しそうになった。そこで短い棒で支えて、かろうじて小川の河口に至って筏を繋いだ。その間に時々波が侵入して火薬の箱を濡らそうとしたので、身体で波を遮り覆うこと約30分、実に千辛万苦を味わい、ついに諸々の道具を陸に上げることができた。また潜み隠れるべき場所をあちこちに求めた。求めながら思うに、この土地は国であろうか島であろうか、人が住んでいるのか住んでいないのか、まだこれを詳しく知らない。ただ一里ほど離れて一つの険しい山があり、またその北に小峰が連なって次第に低くなっているのを見た。そこで一つの

小銃と一つの大銃、火薬と鉛弾の袋を携帯し、身を守るものとして山に登った。頂上から見ると、この土地は島で、四方すべてが海に囲まれている。また他の国土は見えない。ただ海上に多くの岩石がそびえ立ち、別に三里ほど離れて二つの小島がある。◯考察するに、この土地は穀物を生産せず、ただ猛獣の棲み処であろう。しかしながら、また一頭の獣にも遭遇しない。ただ諸々の鳥が巣を作るものが多い。その鳥はみな異形で知らないものである。ゆえに食料になるかどうかを詳しく知らない。山麓に大きな密林があり、一方の大木の中に巨鳥が止まっているのを見た。銃を放って捕獲した。その爆音に驚いて林中の鳥がことごとく大いに飛び叫んで去った。◯その捕獲した鳥は猛禽類で、その肉は食べられない。また筏のところに帰って寝床を定めようとした。しかし地上に臥すには

Since there were no mast rigging, I was greatly troubled. At that time, there were three heavenly blessings that allowed me to reach the shore. First, the sea surface was flat without waves; second, the tidal water was rising and advancing toward the shore; third, there was a gentle breeze that slowly blew me forward. When I had drawn somewhat near to the shore, large waves arose and I was about to crash into the rocks. Therefore, I supported myself with a short pole and barely managed to reach the mouth of a small stream where I moored the raft. During this time, waves occasionally invaded and threatened to wet the gunpowder box, so I used my body to block and shield against the waves for about half an hour. Having truly tasted countless hardships, I finally managed to bring all the various implements onto land. I also sought here and there for a place where I could take shelter and hide. While searching, I wondered whether this land was a country or an island, whether people lived here or not - I had not yet determined this clearly. There was only one steep mountain about one ri away, and to its north I could see small peaks connected in a chain that gradually decreased in height. So I took one

small gun and one large gun, along with a bag of gunpowder and lead shot, carrying them as protection for myself, and climbed the mountain. Looking from the summit, this land was an island completely surrounded on all sides by sea. I could see no other land. There were only many rocky crags rising from the sea, and separately, about three ri distant, there were two small islands. ◯Upon reflection, this land produces no grain and would likely be only a den for wild beasts. However, I encountered not a single beast. Only many birds that build nests here. These birds were all of strange forms that I did not recognize. Therefore I could not determine clearly whether they would serve as food or not. There was a great dense forest at the mountain's base, and I saw a giant bird perched in one of the large trees. I fired my gun and captured it. Startled by the explosion, all the birds in the forest flew up with great cries and departed. ◯The bird I had captured was a bird of prey, and its meat was inedible. I returned to where the raft was to establish a sleeping place. However, to lie down on the ground
