Excerpt from The Fearsome Island, Being a Modern Rendering of the Narrative of One Silas Fordred, Master Mariner of Hythe
But, among all these documents, many of which might possess great interest for the antiquarian or social economist, there was one that I read and re-read thrice before imparting its contents to my good friend Cobb; or stay, such rather was my intention, but, on second thoughts, I carefully placed the time-worn sheets in my ulster pocket there was quite a bun dle of them and here in town I am turning into modern English what Silas Fordred penned with great labour and difficulty in the days of good Queen Bess.
