timbers together (связал деревяшки). They formed a framework (они сформировали
каркас) that was strong (который был прочным) and would not sink (и не потонет).
On top of this framework I laid all the boards I could find (положил все доски,
которые смог найти).
I now had a very good raft (очень хороший плот). It was large enough

Of all the things on board, I would need food the most (мне будет необходима
еда больше всего). So I filled the first chest (наполнил первый ящик) with bread, rice,
cheese, and a few pieces of meat (хлебом, рисом, сыром и несколькими кусками
мяса).
I found also a small bag of grain (маленькую сумку зерна), of which I took good
care (о которой взял хорошую заботу = которую я бережно забрал). It was barley

carpenter’s chest (мне посчастливилось увидеть плотницкий ящик). It was full of
tools (полон инструментов).
It was hard work to get it on the raft (тяжелая работа доставить). I lifted and
pulled (поднимал и тянул). I pulled and lifted; and at last I had it alongside of the other
boxes (имел его рядом = вместе с… = он оказался там же, где и другие ящики). How
tired I was (каким уставшим я был = как же я устал)!

I MAKE ME A RAFT
THERE was a great deal of water in the ship’s hold. But the cabin and the
storerooms were dry. The boxes of food had not been touched by the water.
I was very hungry, but I had no time to lose. So I filled my pockets with dry
biscuits and ate them as I went about.
There were many things on the ship. They might be very useful to me if I had
them on shore. But there was no boat, and how could I carry them there?
"I will make a raft." I said to myself.
There were several long pieces of timber on the deck. I tied a rope to each of
these so that it would not float away. Then I dropped them, one by one, over the ship’s
side.
After this I slid down my rope into the water, and tied these timbers together.
They formed a framework that was strong and would not sink.
On top of this framework I laid all the boards I could find.
I now had a very good raft. It was large enough to carry a great many things. All
the time I was building it I was planning how to load it.
In the cabin there were three strong boxes, such as sailors use. These I emptied.
Then I carried them out and let them down upon my raft.

I CARRY SOME THINGS ASHORE (я приношу некоторый вещи на берег)
IT was now past noon (после полудня), and the tide was coming in (прилив
приближался). I could not stop to rest (не мог остановиться отдохнуть).
"I have food, I have clothing, I have tools," I said to myself. "What do I need next
(что мне нужно затем = теперь)?"
Then I thought of the wild animals (подумал о диких животных) and wild men
(людях) that I might meet on the shore (которых я мог встретить на берегу). "How
shall I protect myself from them (как я буду защищать себя)?" I said.
In the captain's room (в комнате капитана) I found two good guns (нашел два
хороших ружья) with a bag of shot and a powderhorn (с сумкой дроби и пороха).

There were also two old swords (две старых шпаги), very rusty and dull (очень ржавых
и тупых), and a pair of big pistols (пара больших пистолетов).
By looking around, I found also three small kegs of powder (три маленьких
