καταλειφθεὶς δὴ μόνος, οὐκ ἔχων εἰς τίνα πόλιν σωθήσομαι, παρὰ τὴν θάλατταν ἄλλως ἐπλανώμην, εἴ πού τινας ἢ παραπλέοντας ἢ ὁρμοῦντας ἴδοιμι. προεληλυθὼς δὲ συχνὸν ἀνθρώπων μὲν οὐδένα ἑώρων· ἐπιτυγχάνω δὲ ἐλάφῳνεωστὶ κατὰ τοῦ κρημνοῦ πεπτωκότι παρʼ αὐτὴν τὴν ῥαχίαν, ὑπὸ τῶν κυμάτων παιομένῳ, φυσῶντι ἔτι. καὶ μετʼ ὀλίγον ἔδοξα ὑλακῆς ἀκοῦσαι κυνῶν ἄνωθεν μόλις πως διὰ τὸν ἦχον τὸν ἀπὸ τῆς θαλάττης.
