A sudden storm overtook them at length, and after the ship had for some time borne up against the winds and waves, she unfortunately foundered. During the tempest Al-Kuz happily laid hold of a plank, and in spite of the winds floated two days and two nights ; at last he was thrown on an island, which appeared to him to be wholly uninhabited. Being almost dead with hunger, he ate some fruits that grew wild and which were of a delicious taste ; and marching afterwards nine days without meeting wi...th any habita- tion, he arrived towards the close of the tenth on the banks of a little river, which he crossed by swimming, and descended a charming fine meadow, which led to a noble city called Brava. As Al-Kuz made but an indifferent figure in point of dress, and fearing to be insulted, he declined entering the city till night. After he had refreshed himself with the remainder of those fruits he had brought with him, the coolness of his situation invited him to rest ; and as it was a good while since he had enjoyed a comfortable repose, he fell into a profound sleep, out of which he did not wake before the night was far advanced, when he was suddenly awakened.
