I got so much money by my first adventure, and such an insight intothe method of getting more, that had I been twenty years younger, Ishould have been tempted to have stayed here, and sought no fartherfor making my fortune; but what was all this to a man upwards ofthreescore, that was rich enough, and came abroad more in obedienceto a restless desire of seeing the world than a covetous desire ofgaining by it? A restless desire it really was, for when I was athome I was restless to go abroad; and when I was abroad I wasrestless to be at home. I say, what was this gain to me? I wasrich enough already, nor had I any uneasy desires about gettingmore money; therefore the profit of the voyage to me was of nogreat force for the prompting me forward to further undertakings.Hence, I thought that by this voyage I had made no progress at all,because I was come back, as I might call it, to the place fromwhence I came, as to a home: whereas, my eye, like that whichSolomon speaks of, was never satisfied with seeing.
