| Back | In short, during that time I have weighed the cares and responsibilities governing brings with it, and by my reckoning I find my shoulders can't bear them, nor are they a load for my loins or arrows for my quiver; and so, before the government threw me over I preferred to throw the government over; and yesterday morning I left the island as I found it, with the same streets, houses, and roofs it had when I entered it. |

| Front | En resolución, en este tiempo yo he tanteado las cargas que trae consigo, y las obligaciones, el gobernar, y he hallado por mi cuenta que no las podrán llevar mis hombros, ni son peso de mis costillas, ni flechas de mi aljaba; y así, antes que diese conmigo al través el gobierno, he querido yo dar con el gobierno al través, y ayer de mañana dejé la ínsula como la hallé: con las mismas calles, casas y tejados que tenía cuando entré en ella. |
