{{quote|''Her father loved me, oft invited me,''
''Still questioned me the story of my life''
''From year to year, the battles, sieges, fortunes,''
''That I have passed.''
''I ran it through, even from my boyish days,''
''To th' very moment that he bade me tell it,''
''Wherein I spoke of most disastrous chances,''
''Of moving accidents by flood and field,''
''Of hair-breadth ’scapes i' th' imminent deadly breach,''
''Of being taken by the insolent foe''
''[[Made a Slave|And sold to slavery, of my redemption thence]]''
''And portance in my traveler’s history.'' }}
