| Back | Within-doors, that is when it rained and I could not go out, I found employment in the following occupations—always observing, that all the while I was at work I diverted myself with talking to my parrot, and teaching him to speak; and I quickly taught him to know his own name, and at last to speak it out pretty loud, “Poll,” which was the first word I ever heard spoken in the island by any mouth but my own. |

| Front | Sin poder salir, esto es, mientras llovía, me ocupaba de los siguientes asuntos. Siempre que trabajaba, me entretenía hablándole al loro y enseñándole a hablar, de modo que pronto aprendió su propio nombre y a decirlo fuertemente: POLL, que fue la primera palabra que se pronunció en la isla por boca que no fuera la mía. |
