The Voyages of Sindbad (29)  Third Voyage

  " I would rather have come to anchorany where than here, " said our Captain.

  " This island and those adjoining it are inhabited by hairy saveges, who are certain to attack us, and we dare not resist these dwarfs, since they swarm like locusts, and if one of them is killed the rest will fall upon us, and speedly make an end of us. "

  These words caused great consternation among all the ship's company, and only too soon we were find out that the Captain spoke truly.

  There appeared a vast multitude of hideous saveges, covered with reddish fur.
  Throwing themselves into the waves, they surrounded our vessel.

  Chattering meanwhile in a language we could not understand, and clutching at ropes and gangways, they swarmed up the ship's side with such speed and agility that they almost seemed to fly.
