"By lifting your anchor, and accompanying me down to the coast, friend Pathfinder, when we get back from this short cruise on which we are bound, you will find yourself beyond the sound of the war-whoop, and safe enough from any Indian bullet."
– En levant l’ancre et en m’accompagnant sur la côte, à notre retour de la courte croisière que nous allons commencer, vous vous trouverez hors de portée d’entendre le cri de guerre des Indiens, et leurs balles ne pourront vous atteindre.

My anchor is now lying above the suction, in the open lake; and here is a line, you see, to haul us up to it.
Mon ancre est en ce moment mouillée dans le lac, au-dessus de l’endroit où le courant commence à se faire sentir ; une corde y est attachée ; vous la voyez là ; et il n’y a qu’à la tirer pour y arriver.

At nine o'clock, however, Cap insisted that they should anchor; for the maze of islands became so complicated and obscure, that he feared, at every opening, the party would find themselves under the guns of a French fort.
Cependant à neuf heures Cap insista pour qu’on jetât l’ancre, car le labyrinthe d’îles devenait si compliqué, qu’il craignait, à chaque espace d’eau libre, de se trouver sous les canons d’un fort français.

A coal brig from Liverpool was lying at anchor, waiting for the tide; they made a sweep round her stern and went to look at each of the vessels in the roads one after another; then they put further out to look at the unfolding line of coast.
Un vapeur charbonnier de Liverpool était à l'ancre attendant la marée; ils allèrent tourner par derrière, puis ils visitèrent, l'un après l'autre, les navires en rade, puis ils s'éloignèrent un peu plus pour voir se dérouler la côte.
