This was a great undertaking for one pair of hands yet, as I saw there was an absolute necessity for doing it, my first work was to find out a proper piece of ground, where there was likely to be herbage for them to eat, water for them to drink, and cover to keep them from the sun.
Era questa una grande impresa per un sol paio di mani; pur vedendo che ciò era d’inevitabile necessità, la mia prima cura fu trovar fuori un pezzo di terreno conveniente, in cui cioè potesse rinvenirsi erba pel loro pascolo, acqua perchè si abbeverassero, ed ombra che li riparasse dal sole.
