She did so , adding jewels to jewels , pearls to pearls , and beauty to beauty -LRB- for it increases with the satisfaction of the heart -RRB- , to the renewed admiration and astonishment of all . Ricardo and Mahmoud also dressed themselves in the Turkish costume , and made the crew put on the garments of the dead Turks . It was about eight o'clock when they entered the harbour , and the morning was so calm and clear that it seemed as though it were intent on beholding this joyful arrival . Before coming into port , Ricardo fired a salute with the three pieces belonging to the galley , which were one gun amidships , and two falconets ; the town returned the salute with an equal number . The whole shore was in lively commotion , watching the approach of the gaily decked galley ; but when they had a nearer view of it , and saw by the white turbans of the pretended mussulmans that it was a Turkish craft , there was a general alarm . Suspecting some stratagem , the people flew to arms , all the soldiers in the town were marched down to the port , and the cavalry scoured the coast .
