After he had slumber'd, rather than slept, about half an Hour, he wak'd again, and comes out of the Cave to me; for I had been milking my Goats, which I had in the Enclosure just by: When he espy'd me, he came running to me, laying himself down again upon the Ground, with all the possible Signs of an humble thankful Disposition, making a many antick Gestures show it: At last he lays his Head flat upon the Ground, close to my Foot, and sets my other Foot upon his Head, as he had done before; and after this, made all the Signs to me of Subjection, Servitude, and Submission imaginable, to let me know, how he would serve me as long as he liv'd; I understood him in many Things, and let him know, I was very well pleas'd with him; in a little Time I began to speak to him, and teach him to speak to me; and first, I made him know his Name should be Friday, which was the Day I sav'd his Life; I call'd him so for the Memory of the Time; I likewise taught him to say Master, and then let him know, that was to be my Name; I likewise taught him to say, YES, and No, and to know the Meaning of them; I gave him some Milk, in an earthen Pot, and let him see me Drink it before him, and sop my Bread in it; and I gave him a Cake of Bread, to do the like, which he quickly comply'd with, and made Signs that it was very good for him.

他的皮肤不怎么黑，略带棕色，然而不像巴西人或弗吉尼亚人或美洲其他土人的肤色那样黄金褐色的，令人生厌，而是一种深茶青色的，油光乌亮，令人爽心悦目，劫难以用言语形容。他的脸圆圆胖胖的，鼻子却很小，但又不像一般黑人的鼻子那样扁；他的嘴形长得也很好看，嘴唇薄薄的，牙齿又平又白，白得如同象牙。他并没有睡得死死的，实际上只打了半小时的盹就醒来了。他一醒来就跑到洞外来找我，因为当时我正在挤羊奶，我的羊圈就在附近。他一见到我，立刻向我奔来，爬在地上，做出各种各样的手势和古怪的姿势，表示他臣服感激之心。最后，他又把头放在地上，靠近我的脚边，然后又像上次那样，把我的另一只脚放到他的头上，这样做之后，又向我作出各种姿势，表示顺从降服，愿终身做我的奴隶，为我效劳。他的这些意思我都明白了。我告诉他，我对他非常满意。不久，我就开始和他谈话，并教他和我谈话。首先，我告诉他，他的名字叫"星期五"，这是我救他命的一天，这样取名是为了纪念这一天。

The Duke of Medina Sidonia now sent a message to the Duke of Parma in Dunkirk:"I am anchored here two leagues from Calais with the enemy's fleet on my flank. They can cannonade me whenever they like, and I shall be unable to do them much harm in return." He asked Parma to send fifty ships to help him break out of Calais. Parma was unable to help as he had less than twenty ships and most of those were not yet ready to sail.That night Medina Sidonia sent out a warning to his captains that he expected a fire-ship attack. This tactic had been successfully used by Francis Drake in Cadiz in 1587 and the fresh breeze blowing steadily from the English fleet towards Calais, meant the conditions were ideal for such an attack. He warned his captains not to panic and not to head out to the open sea. Medina Sidonia confidently told them that his patrol boats would be able to protect them from any fire-ship attack that took place.Medina Sidonia had rightly calculated what would happen.

1577年，他再次从英国出发，乘着旗舰"金鹿"号直奔美洲沿岸，一路打劫西班牙商船，西班牙人做梦也想不到，竟然有人敢在"自家后院胡闹"，当他们派出军舰追击时，德雷克早已逃往南方，但由于西班牙的封锁，他无法通过狭窄的麦哲伦海峡，在一次猛烈的风暴中，"金鹿"号同船队其它伙伴失散了，被向南吹了5°之多，来到了西班牙人也未曾到过的地方，自从麦哲伦海峡被发现以来人们一直认为海峡以南的火地岛就是传说中的南方大陆的一部分，但此时呈现在德雷克面前的是一片汪洋大海，德雷克被这意外的发现惊呆了，他很高兴的向大家宣布"传说中的南方大陆是不存在的，即使存在，也一定是在南方更寒冷的地方，"(直到今天我们还称这片广阔的水域为"德雷克海峡")，但德雷克却一直向西横渡了太平洋。1579年7月23日，他到达了马里亚纳群岛，8月22日穿过北回归线，9月26日回到了阔别已久的普次茅斯港，再次成为了"民众的英雄"，这次航行是继麦哲伦之后的第二次环球航行，但德雷克却是第一个自始至终指挥环球航行的船长(众所周知，麦哲伦在菲律宾被土人做成三明治吃掉了)。
