I could not yet imagine what he aimed at, and told him I granted all hehad said, and thanked him that he would so far concern himself for us:and begged he would explain the particulars of what he had observed, thatlike Joshua, to take his own parable, I might put away the accursed thingfrom us. Upon this he faced about just before me, as he walked along, and puttingme to a full stop, made me a very low bow. I most heartily thank Godand you, sir, said he, for giving me so evident a call to so blessed awork; and if you think yourself discharged from it, and desire me toundertake it, I will most readily do it, and think it a happy reward forall the hazards and difficulties of such a broken, disappointed voyage asI have met with, that I am dropped at last into so glorious a work. I discovered a kind of rapture in his face while he spoke this to me; hiseyes sparkled like fire; his face glowed, and his colour came and went;in a word, he was fired with the joy of being embarked in such a work. Ipaused a considerable while before I could tell what to say to him; for Iwas really surprised to find a man of such sincerity, and who seemedpossessed of a zeal beyond the ordinary rate of men. But after I hadconsidered it a while, I asked him seriously if he was in earnest, andthat he would venture, on the single consideration of an attempt toconvert those poor people, to be locked up in an unplanted island forperhaps his life, and at last might not know whether he should be able todo them good or not He turned short upon me, and asked me what I calleda venture Pray, sir, said he, what do you think I consented to go inyour ship to the East Indies foray, said I, that I know not, unless it was to preach to the Indians. Doubtless it was, said he;and do you think, if I can convert these thirtyseven men to the faithof Jesus Christ, it is not worth my time, though I should never befetched off the island againnay, is it not infinitely of more worth tosave so many souls than my life is, or the life of twenty more of thesame profession Yes, sir, says he, I would give God thanks all mydays if I could be made the happy instrument of saving the souls of thosepoor men, though I were never to get my foot off this island or see mynative country any more. But since you will honour me with putting meinto this work, for which I will pray for you all the days of my life, Ihave one humble petition to you besides. What is that said I. Why, says he, it is, that you will leave your man Friday with me, to be myinterpreter to them, and to assist me; for without some help I cannotspeak to them, or they to me. I was sensibly touched at his requesting Friday, because I could notthink of parting with him, and that for many reasons: he had been thecompanion of my travels; he was not only faithful to me, but sincerelyaffectionate to the last degree; and I had resolved to do somethingconsiderable for him if he outlived me, as it was probable he would. Then I knew that, as I had bred Friday up to be a Protestant, it wouldquite confound him to bring him to embrace another religion; and he wouldnever, while his eyes were open, believe that his old master was aheretic, and would be damned; and this might in the end ruin the poorfellow's principles, and so turn him back again to his first idolatry. However, a sudden thought relieved me in this strait, and it was this: Itold him I could not say that I was willing to part with Friday on anyaccount whatever, though a work that to him was of more value than hislife ought to be of much more value than the keeping or parting with aservant. On the other hand, I was persuaded that Friday would by nomeans agree to part with me; and I could not force him to it without hisconsent, without manifest injustice; because I had promised I would neversend him away, and he had promised and engaged that he would never leaveme, unless I sent him away. He seemed very much concerned at it, for he had no rational access tothese poor people, seeing he did not understand one word of theirlanguage, nor they one of his. To remove this difficulty, I told himFriday's father had learned Spanish, which I found he also understood, and he should serve him as an interpreter. So he was much bettersatisfied, and nothing could persuade him but he would stay and endeavourto convert them; but Providence gave another very happy turn to all this. I come back now to the first part of his objections. When we came to theEnglishmen, I sent for them all together, and after some account giventhem of what I had done for them, viz. What necessary things I hadprovided for them, and how they were distributed, which they were verysensible of, and very thankful for, I began to talk to them of thescandalous life they led, and gave them a full account of the notice theclergyman had taken of it; and arguing how unchristian and irreligious alife it was, I first asked them if they were married men or bachelorsThey soon explained their condition to me, and showed that two of themwere widowers, and the other three were single men, or bachelors. Iasked them with what conscience they could take these women, and callthem their wives, and have so many by them, and not be lawfullymarried to them They all gave me the answer I expected, viz. That therewas nobody to marry them; that they agreed before the governor to keepthem as their wives, and to maintain them and own them as their wives;and they thought, as things stood with them, they were as legally marriedas if they had been married by a parson and with all the formalities inthe world.
