All told, we had scarce two miles to run; but the navigation was delicate, the entrance to this northern anchorage was not only narrow and shoal, but lay east and west, so that the schooner must be nicely handled to be got in.

• 我们现在的路程总共不到两英里，但航行起来却非常困难。 这个北锚地的入口处不仅又窄又浅，而且左拐右拐，所以必须非常小心地驾驶才能将帆船驶进去。
