Da aber der Südwind wehte und sie meinten, sie hätten nun ihr Vornehmen, erhoben sie sich und fuhren näher an Kreta hin.
Y soplando el austro, pareciéndoles que ya tenían lo que deseaban, alzando velas, iban cerca de la costa de Creta.
Cuando comenzó a soplar suavemente un viento del sur, pensaron que habían logrado su propósito. Levaron anclas y navegaban cerca de la costa de Creta.
Un léger vent du sud vint à souffler, et, se croyant maîtres de leur dessein, ils levèrent l'ancre et côtoyèrent de près l'île de Crète.
Ora, messosi a soffiar l’Austro, pensando esser venuti a capo del lor proponimento, levate le ancore, costeggiavano Creti più da presso.
E, soprando o sul brandamente, lhes pareceu terem já o que desejavam e, fazendo-se de vela, foram de muito perto costeando Creta.
當南風微微吹起時,他們以為對目的地已有了把握,就起錨,貼近 克里特 開去。
