         11. What I Heard in the Apple Barrel         _11. Plu ra; mi pa audi in pomi kilindra "No, not I," said Silver. "Flint was cap'n; I was quartermaster, along of my timber leg. The same broadside I lost my leg, old Pew lost his deadlights. _Silva dice, "No, ne mi. Flinti pa es navi-cefa. Mi pa es habe-ra cefa ko mi dendro-ma poda. Mi pa lose poda per iso bola-fa; per qi Piu pa lose bi oku. "Here it is about gentlemen of fortune. They lives rough, and they risk swinging, but they eat and drink like fighting-cocks, and when a cruise is done, why, it's hundreds of pounds instead of hundreds of farthings in their pockets." _Id es homo u-ci mode ko panto andro de boni okasio: Mu habe plu no-facili bio, e habe risko de morta per fi-fa. Anti-co mu gene vora- e bibe-ma homo plu an-galina. Mu habe plu hekto argenti valuta vice plu centi valuta, kron viagia es a fini." "Well, I tell you now," replied the lad, "I didn't half ...

         10. The Voyage         _10. U Viagia A little before dawn, the boatswain sounded his pipe and the crew began to man the capstan-bars. _Un ergo-pe cefa pa akti soni per sibila-ru mikro tem pre fotoproto. Un ergo-pe grega pa tena plu baci de navi fixa-ru leva-me. "Now, Barbecue, tip us a stave," cried one voice. _Mo voka dice forti, "Kuko-pe, sti kanta." Said Long John, who was standing by, with his crutch under his arm, and at once broke out in the air and words I knew so well: _Alti Jon; qi pa habe proxi kon auxi-baci infra skapa, e sti minus atende u kanta; de qi mi este sura memo:         "Fifteen men on the dead man's chest--"         _"Mo-penta epi teka de morta-an - " And then the whole crew bore chorus:-- _Po-co un holo grega dice kanta mero:         "Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum!"         _"Jo-ho-ho e botilia ko rum!"        An...

        9. Powder and Arms         _9. Explode-Farina e plu Fusili We had hardly got down into the cabin when a sailor followed us. _Na pa ki ad infra in cefa-kamera, po-kron u mari-pe ki po na minus atende. "Captain Smollett, sir, axing to speak with you," said he. _An dice, "U navi-cefa Smolet, cefa, dice petitio de dice ko tu." The captain, who was close behind his messenger, entered at once and shut the door behind him. _U navi-cefa; qi es proxi po info-pe, ki in la minus atende, e sti klude porta po se. "Well, sir," said the captain, "better speak plain, I believe, even at the risk of offence. I don't like this cruise; I don't like the men." _U navi-cefa dice, "Ma boni es klari dice - mi este - klu ko risko de koleri. Mi ne este hedo de u-ci viagia. Mi ne este hedo de plu ergo-pe. "I was engaged, sir, on what we call sealed orders, to sail this ship for that gentleman where he should bid me," said the captain. ...

8. At the Sign of the Spy-glass _8. Lo Signi de Tele-Skope-ru The squire gave me a note addressed to John Silver, at the sign of the Spy-glass... _U Proprie-pe pa dona a mi u nota; ge-nomina a Jon Silva lo signi de Tele-Skope-ru. It was a bright enough little place of entertainment. _Id pa es alegro e mikro loka; qi dona hedo. A man came out of a side room, and at a glance I was sure he must be Long John. His left leg was cut off close by the hip, and under the left shoulder he carried a crutch, which he managed with wonderful dexterity... _Un andro pa ki ex latu kamera. Mi pa este per vide mo; an es Alti Jon. U levo poda de an pa gene apo proxi koxa. An pa habe auxi-baci infra levo skapa; per qi an akti ko sti-mira tekno. I knew what a buccaneer was like--a very different creature, according to me, from this clean and pleasant-tempered landlord. _Mi pa este logi; u mari klepto-pe es qo - mi pa este; forti difere bio-ra de u-la puri e alegro proprie-pe. "Mr. Silver, sir?" I ...
