- વળી શિયાળો પસાર કરવા સારુ તે બંદર સગવડ ભરેલું નહોતું, માટે ઘણાને એ સલાહ આપી કે, આપણે અહીંથી નીકળીએ, કોઈ પણ રીતે ફેનિક્સ પહોંચીને ત્યાં શિયાળો ગાળીએ; ત્યાં ક્રીતનું બંદર છે, ઈશાન તથા અગ્નિકોણની સામે તેનું મુખ છે.

- वह बन्दरगाह जाड़ा काटने के लिये अच्छा न था; इसलिए बहुतों का विचार हुआ कि वहाँ से जहाज खोलकर यदि किसी रीति से हो सके तो फीनिक्स में पहुँचकर जाड़ा काटें। यह तो क्रेते का एक बन्दरगाह है जो दक्षिण-पश्चिम और उत्तर-पश्चिम की ओर खुलता है।
