Symzonia: Voyage of Discovery
·
Captain Adam Seaborn
129
After
stating
these
and
many
other
charges
against
the
externals,
he
added,
that
many
of
his
council
seriously
apprehended
that
it
was
only
our
inordinate
thirst
for
gain,
that
had
induced
me
and
my
people
to
hazard
our
lives
in
an
unknown
region,
and
that
it
had
not
escaped
their
notice,
that
my
vessel
was
provided
with
terrific
engines
of
destruction,
no
doubt
to
enforce
our
will
where
our
purposes
required
it:
Wherefore
he,
the
Best
Man,
in
council,
had
come
to
a
resolution,
that
the
safety
and
happiness
of
his
people
would
be
endangered
by
permitting
any
further
intercourse
with
so
corrupt
and
depraved
a
race.
He
therefore
required
that
I
should
repair
forthwith
to
my
vessel,
and
there
remain
until
the
season
of
bright
light
was
sufficiently
advanced
to
enable
me
to
return
to
my
country
in
safety;
and
ordered
that
all
necessary
supplies
of
food,
and
whatever
was
wanted
to
refit
my
vessel,
should
be
furnished
at
the
expense
of
the
state;
but
that
I
should
not
be
permitted
to
take
away
any
of
the
products
of
the
country
which
I
esteemed
valuable
for
traffic,
lest
the
cupidity
of
my
countrymen
should
lead
them
to
send
an
armed
force
to
obtain
such
things.
They
were
fully
aware,
he
said,
of
the
articles
which
were
most
coveted
by
the
externals;
for
my
books
had
described
them,
and
the
purposes
to
which
they
were
applied;
and
Efficients
would
therefore
be
appointed
to
examine
my
vessel,
and
see
that
I
took
away
none
of
those
articles.
He
felt
confident
that
they
had
additional
security
for
a
strict
compliance
with
this
prohibitory
order,
in
my
integrity,
of
which
he
had
formed
a
favourable
estimate,
notwithstanding
the
corruption
of
my
nature,
and
did
not
apprehend
that
I
would
break
through
his
injunctions,
after
partaking
so
largely
of
the
hospitality
of
the
country.
