six o'clock
To that place I found that I was at once to proceed . I will not describe all the incidents which occurred before I got there . I must try and hurry on with my adventures , or I shall never bring them to an end . By the 19th I got off the harbour , and , making a signal for assistance , some boats came out to help tow me in , and by six o'clock I was safely moored under the guns of the squadron . The commodore was delighted to see me . I did not flatter myself so much because of my own merits , as on account of the richly-freighted old galleon . However , I was not addicted to trouble myself as to the cause of any attention I might receive , or any compliments which might be paid me ; but I always received them with a good grace , as if they were invariably due to my own especial merits .
