He was very lucky to fall in with some good
company.

5. One person he met was the captain of a ship which
was about to go to the Guinea coast of Africa for
trading.
The captain took a fancy to young Crusoe
and told him that he could come along at no
expense.

this captain, who was an honest and plain dealing
man.”
On this voyage, Crusoe carried forty pounds with
him, which was invested in toys and trifles for
trading.

21. -* The Character of Robinson Crusoe is based
on the life and the story of a scot man named
Alexander.
* He was a sailor and 19 years old.
* Daniel Defoe used the same story but in a
different way.
22. •* His first contrivance was to speak to the
Moor to get something to stay on board.
•* He told him we must not presume to eat
our patron’s bread.
* So, he brought a large basket of
Rusk, biscuit and three jars with fresh
water into the boat.
* He knew where the case of bottles , it
was evident , he conveyed them into the
boat while the moor was on shore.
* Another trick he tried upon him which
innocently came into also . His name Ismael
and he called him Moely.
* Then the wind blew from the north-
northeast which was contrary to his desire
to the coast of Spain.
23. * After he and the moor fished nothing and went
back to the boat , he stepped forward to where
the moor was , pretend to stop for something
, took him by suspires into the sea , he begged
to be taken in and told him we will go over the
world.
He said I had done no hurt and , will do no harm
but if you come near the boat I’ll shoot you , the
moor reached the shore , he was an excellent
swimmer.
* when he was gone he turned to the boy who
thy called Xury and said “ if you will be faithful
to me I’ll make you a great man “
24. * as soon as it grew dusk in the evening he
changed his course and directly south and by
east , that he might keep in with the shore.
* yet such was the fright I had taken at the
moors and the dreadful apprehensions that
had of falling into their hands , Xury was
dreadfully frighted, But both more frighted
when they heard mighty creatures come
swimming to there boat.
25. After a good
voyage, Crusoe landed
in Brazil twenty-two days
later. The captain was
very generous with
Crusoe, charging him
nothing for the voyage
and, instead, paying him
twenty ducats for a
leopard's skin and forty
for the lion's skin.
Furthermore, by selling
all of his goods he made
about two hundred and
twenty pieces of eight.
26. Crusoe lived with a planter on a
sugar plantation for some time
and learned the manner of
planting. He later purchased as
much land as his money would
buy. For the first two years, he
planted mainly for food, but by
the third year, he planted some
tobacco and prepared ground
for cane. Now he realized that
he should not have sold Xury
because he was in need of help
on his plantation.
27. Soon Crusoe
discovered that he
was "coming into the
very middle
station, or upper
degree of low
life, which my father
advised me to
before." He was
amused by this fact
because he could
have stayed at home
and arrived at the
same position
without all of his
adventures.
28. Since his plantation was
at a great distance even
from his nearest
neighbor, Crusoe often
thought that he "lived just
like a man cast away upon
some desolate island that
had nobody there but
himself." In retrospect, he
was thankful for the slight
desolation he had on his
plantation
29. The Portuguese captain remained for
three months and, during this
time, Crusoe told him of the money (two
hundred pounds) which he had left in
London with the English captain's
widow.
30. The captain advised him to send for one
half of his money so that if that half were
lost, he would still have the other half left.
Crusoe wrote to the widow and had her
send the money to Lisbon. He wrote the
widow about all of his adventures, and she
was so thankful for his safety that she sent
the Portuguese captain five pounds out of
her own pocket.

CHARACTER LIST
Robinson Crusoe: the main
character of the story, he is a
rebellious youth with an
inexplicable need to travel.
Because of this need, he brings
misfortune on himself and is left
to fend for himself in a primitive
land. The novel essentially
chronicles his mental and
spiritual development as a
result of his isolation. He is a
contradictory character; at the
same time he is practical
ingenuity and immature
decisiveness.
32.
Xury: a friend/servant of
Crusoe's, he also escapes
from the Moors. A simple
youth who is dedicated to
Crusoe, he is admirable for
his willingness to stand by
the narrator. However, he
does not think for himself.
33.
Friday: another
friend/servant of
Crusoe's, he spends a
number of years on the
island with the main
character, who saves him
from cannibalistic death.
Friday is basically
Crusoe's protege, a living
example of religious
justification of the slavery
relationship between the
two men. His eagerness to
be redone in the European
image is supposed to
convey that this image is
indeed the right one.
34.
Crusoe's father: although
he appears only briefly in
the beginning, he
embodies the theme of
the merits of
Protestant, middle-class
living. It is his teachings
from which Crusoe is
running, with poor
success.
