affigned them a place at fome diftance from 
my camp, where they might pafs the night.

Narina feemed to like the tea, but the colour 
of the coffee made her conceive an averfion to 
that liquor, I put my hand upon her eyes, and 
made her fwallow half a cupful more of it ; but 
£he flill gave the preference to tea. She even 
drank of it very often; and this on her part was 
a piece cf fineffe which I pretended not to per- 
ceive, and which afforded me miich amufement* 
I am perfuaded that fhe did not much relifh this 
liquor, but fhe made hafle to fwallow it, that fhe 
might, in the bottom of the cup, get at a piece

repofe put an end to our pleafures. 
Having for fome time flept In my waggon

chief of the Gonaquas with the care of guard- 
ing my camp, and I lodged the old man in 
my largeft tent.
