I was endeavouring to find some gap in the hedge, when I discovered one of the inhabitants in the next field advancing towards the stile, of the same size with him whom I saw in the sea pursuing our boat.

My master, finding how profitable I was likely to be, resolved to carry me to the most considerable cities of the kingdom.
