The 20 day tooke 3 li. sixe ounces and a quarter of golde.  The 21 we tooke 8 li. 7. ounces and a quarter.  The 22. 3. li. 8. ounces and a quarter.  And this night about 4 of the clocke the Captaine who had layen all this while vpon the shoare, went away with all the rest of the people with him.

The 23 day we were waued a shoare by other Negroes, and sold them cloth, caskets, kniues, and a dosen of bels, and tooke 1 li. 10 ounces of gold.  The 24 likewise we sold bels, sheetes, and thimbles, and tooke two li. one ounce and a quarter of gold.  The 25 day we sold 7 dosen of smal bels and other things, and then perceiuing their gold to be done, we wayed and set sayle and went to leeward to seeke the Hinde, and about 5 of the clocke at night we had sight of her, and bare with her, and understood that shee had made some sales.  The 26 day wee receiued out of the Hinde 48 li. 3 ounces and one eight part of golde, which they had taken in the time that we were from them.  And this day vpon the request of a Negro that came vnto vs from a captaine, we went to shoare with our marchandize, and tooke 7 li. and one ounce of gold.  At this place they required no gages of vs, but at night they sent a man aboord vs, which lay with vs all night, because we might knowe that they would also come to vs the next day.  The 27 day in both our shippes we tooke 8. li. one ounce, three quarters and halfe a quarter of golde.  The 28 we made sales for the companie, and tooke one pound and half an ounce of gold.  The 29 day in the morning we heard two calieuers shot off vpon the shore, which we iudged to be either by the Portugales or by the Negroes of the Portugales:  we manned our boates and armed our selues and went to shoare, but coulde finde nothing:  for they were gone.  The 30 day we made more sales for the companie and for the Masters.

The 31 we sent our boate to shoare to take in sand for balast, and there our men met the Negroes, with whom they had made sale the day before a fishing which did helpe them to fill sand, and hauing no gold, sold fish to our men for their handkerchiefs and nightkerchiefes.

The 1 day of February we wayed and went to another place, and tooke 1 li. 9. ounces 3 quarters of gold.  The 2 day we made more sales:  but hauing viewed our victuals we determined to tarie no long time vpon the coast, because the most part of our drinke was spent, and that which remained grew sowre. [Sidenote:  They returne for England.] The 3 and 4 dayes we made some sales, though not great, and finding the wind this 4. day to come off the shoare, we set saile and ranne along the shoare to the Westwards:  vpon this coast we found by experience that ordinarily about 2 of the clocke in the night the winde comes off the shoare at Northnortheast, and so continueth vntil eight of the clocke in the morning:  and all the rest of the day and night it comes out of Southwest:  and as for the tide or currant vpon this shoare, it goeth continually with the winde.  The 5 day we continued sayling and thought to haue met with some English ships, but found none.
