The Goletta and the fort being thus in their hands, the Turks gave orders to dismantle the coach bags for the fort was reduced to such a state that there was nothing left to level- and to do the work more quickly and easily they mined it in three places; but nowhere were they able to blow up the part which seemed to be the least strong, that is to say, the old walls, while all that remained standing of the new fortifications that the Fratin had made came to the ground with the greatest ease. Finally the fleet returned victorious and triumphant to Constantinople, and a few

I fell to the lot of a Venetian renegade who, when a cabin boy on board a ship, had been taken by Uchali and was so much beloved by him that he became one of his most favoured youths. He came to be the most cruel renegade I ever saw: his cheap jordans was Hassan Aga, and he grew very rich and became king of Algiers.
