As to the Englishmen, I promised to send them some women from England, with a good cargo of necessaries, if they would apply themselves to planting—which I afterwards could not perform.
Quanto agli Inglesi, promisi di spedir loro alcune donne dall’Inghilterra ed un buon carico di stromenti rurali, se avessero voluto darsi all’agricoltura, promessa che in appresso non potei mantenere.
