In an instant they found themselves in a little harbor, formed in a natural creek; the boat grounded on the fine sand.
After a long talk with the harbor-master, Captain Leclere left Naples greatly disturbed in mind.
The two oarsmen bent to their work, and the little boat glided away as rapidly as possible in the midst of the thousand vessels which choke up the narrow way which leads between the two rows of ships from the mouth of the harbor to the Quai d’Orléans.
They waited in the hope of seeing it enter the harbor, but as the object on which they looked was driven nearer to shore by the wind, they found that it could at the most be a small boat, and not a ship.
