Gulliver's Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World - Swift, Jonathan ยท 77 words
On the 9th day of June, 1709, I arrived at Nangasac, after a very long and troublesome journey. I soon fell into the company of some Dutch sailors belonging to the Amboyna, of Amsterdam, a stout ship of 450 tons. I had lived long in Holland, pursuing my studies at Leyden, and I spoke Dutch well. The seamen soon knew from whence I came last. they were curious to inquire into my voyages and course of life.
