| Back | I have already described my habitation, which was a tent under the side of a rock, surrounded with a strong pale of posts and cables: but I might now rather call it a wall, for I raised a kind of wall up against it of turfs, about two feet thick on the outside; and after some time (I think it was a year and a half) I raised rafters from it, leaning to the rock, and thatched or covered it with boughs of trees, and such things as I could get, to keep out the rain; which I found at some times of the year very violent. |

| Front | Ya he descrito mi vivienda, que era una tienda bajo la ladera de una colina, rodeada de una robusta empalizada hecha de postes y cables. En verdad, debería llamarla un muro porque, desde fuera, levanté una suerte de pared contra el césped, de unos dos pies de espesor y, al cabo de un tiempo, creo que como un año y medio, coloqué unas vigas que se apoyaban en la roca y la cubrí con ramas de árboles y cosas por el estilo para protegerme de la lluvia, que en algunas épocas del año era muy violenta. |
