But not to crowd this part with an account of the lesser part of therogueries with which they plagued them continually, night and day, itforced the two men to such a desperation that they resolved to fight themall three, the first time they had a fair opportunity. In order to dothis they resolved to go to the castle (as they called my old dwelling), where the three rogues and the Spaniards all lived together at that time, intending to have a fair battle, and the Spaniards should stand by to seefair play: so they got up in the morning before day, and came to theplace, and called the Englishmen by their names telling a Spaniard thatanswered that they wanted to speak with them.It happened that the day before two of the Spaniards, having been in thewoods, had seen one of the two Englishmen, whom, for distinction, Icalled the honest men, and he had made a sad complaint to the Spaniardsof the barbarous usage they had met with from their three countrymen, andhow they had ruined their plantation, and destroyed their corn, that theyhad laboured so hard to bring forward, and killed the milchgoat andtheir three s, which was all they had provided for their sustenance, and that if he and his friends, meaning the Spaniards, did not assistthem again, they should be starved. When the Spaniards came home atnight, and they were all at supper, one of them took the freedom toreprove the three Englishmen, though in very gentle and mannerly terms, and asked them how they could be so cruel, they being harmless, inoffensive fellows: that they were putting themselves in a way tosubsist by their labour, and that it had cost them a great deal of painsto bring things to such perfection as they were then in.

One of the Englishmen returned very briskly, What had they to do therethat they came on shore without leave; and that they should not plant orbuild upon the island; it was none of their ground. Why, says theSpaniard, very calmly, Seignior Inglese, they must not starve. TheEnglishman replied, like a rough tarpaulin, They might starve; theyshould not plant nor build in that place. But what must they do then, seignior said the Spaniard. Another of the brutes returned, Do theyshould be servants, and work for them. But how can you expect that ofthem says the Spaniard; they are not bought with your money; you haveno right to make them servants. The Englishman answered, The islandwas theirs; the governor had given it to them, and no man had anything todo there but themselves; and with that he swore that he would go andburn all their new huts; they should build none upon their land. Why, seignior, says the Spaniard, by the same rule, we must be yourservants, too. Ay, returned the bold dog, and so you shall, too, before we have done with you; mixing two or three oaths in the properintervals of his speech. The Spaniard only smiled at that, and made himno answer. However, this little discourse had heated them; and startingup, one says to the other. (I think it was he they called Will Atkins), Come, Jack, let's go and have t'other brush with them; we'll demolishtheir castle, I'll warrant you; they shall plant no colony in ourdominions.

Upon this they were all trooping away, with every man a gun, a pistol, and a sword, and muttered some insolent things among themselves of whatthey would do to the Spaniards, too, when opportunity offered; but theSpaniards, it seems, did not so perfectly understand them as to know allthe particulars, only that in general they threatened them hard fortaking the two Englishmen's part. Whither they went, or how theybestowed their time that evening, the Spaniards said they did not know;but it seems they wandered about the country part of the night, and themlying down in the place which I used to call my bower, they were wearyand overslept themselves. The case was this: they had resolved to staytill midnight, and so take the two poor men when they were asleep, and asthey acknowledged afterwards, intended to set fire to their huts whilethey were in them, and either burn them there or murder them as they cameout. As malice seldom sleeps very sound, it was very strange they shouldnot have been kept awake. However, as the two men had also a design uponthem, as I have said, though a much fairer one than that of burning andmurdering, it happened, and very luckily for them all, that they were upand gone abroad before the bloodyminded rogues came to their huts.When they came there, and found the men gone, Atkins, who it seems wasthe forwardest man, called out to his comrade, Ha, Jack, here's thenest, but the birds are flown. They mused a while, to think what shouldbe the occasion of their being gone abroad so soon, and suggestedpresently that the Spaniards had given them notice of it; and with thatthey shook hands, and swore to one another that they would be revenged ofthe Spaniards. As soon as they had made this bloody bargain they fell towork with the poor men's habitation; they did not set fire, indeed, toanything, but they pulled down both their houses, and left not the leaststick standing, or scarce any sign on the ground where they stood; theytore all their household stuff in pieces, and threw everything about insuch a manner, that the poor men afterwards found some of their things amile off. When they had done this, they pulled up all the young treeswhich the poor men had planted; broke down an enclosure they had made tosecure their cattle and their corn; and, in a word, sacked and plunderedeverything as completely as a horde of Tartars would have done.
