I was loath to spend our last Shot too hastily; so I call'd my Servant, not my Man Friday, for he was better employ'd; for with the greatest Dexterity imaginable, he had charg'd my Fusee, and his own, while we were engag'd; but as I said, I call'd my other Man, and giving him a Horn of Powder, I bad him lay a Train, all along the Piece of Timber, and let it be a large Train; he did so, and had but just Time to get away, when the Wolves came up to it, and some were got up upon it; when I snapping an uncharg'd Pistol, close to the Powder, set it on fire; those that were upon the Timber were scorcht with it, and six or seven of them fell, or rather jump'd in among us, with the Force and Fright of the Fire; we dispatch'd these in an Instant, and the rest were so frighted with the Light, which the Night, for it was now very near Dark, made more terrible, that they drew back a little.

我不愿匆匆放完最后一排枪，就叫来了自己的仆人。我没有叫星期五，而是叫了我新雇的那个水手。星期五有更重要的任务要完成。在我们开火的时候，他以惊人的速度给我和他自己的枪装弹药。所以我说，我叫的是新雇的仆人。我给了他一角火药，命令他沿着那根长木头把火药撒下去，撒成一条宽宽长长的火药线。他照着办了。他刚转身回来，狼群就冲了过来，有几只甚至已冲上了那根长木。我立即抓起一支没有放过的手枪，贴近火药线开了一枪，使火药燃烧起来。冲上木料的几只狼给烧伤了；其中有六、七只由于火光的威力和惊恐，竟连跌带跳地落入我们中间。我们立即把它们解决了。其他的狼被火光吓得半死，加上这时天已黑下来，火光看起来就更可怕了，这才使那些狼后退了几步。

我不愿匆匆放最后的一枪，就叫来了自己的仆人，但不是"星期五"；"星期五"正在做更重要的事，在我们忙碌的时候，他以惊人的速度给我和他自己装弹药。所以我叫的是新雇的仆人，我给了他一角火药，命令他把火药铺在长木头上，铺成一条又宽又厚的火药线。他照着做了。他刚离开，狼群就冲了过来，有几只已经上了长木头。我拿着我没有开过火的手枪，贴近火药，扣动扳机，火药顿时燃烧起来。长木头上的那几只狼被火药烧伤了；有六、七只狼，由于火药的威力，也由于害怕火光，跌倒或跳进我们中间，我们立即把它们解决了。其他的狼也被火光吓住了，这时天色近乎漆黑，火光在黑夜里更加可怕，狼这才后退了几步。
