Caspian was sorry for the others languishing in the hold f Pug‘s slave.ship, but he could not help finding the rest of hat day enjoyable. Late in the afternoon (for they had to do l by oar), having turned to starboard round the northeast nd of Doorn and port again round the point of Avra, hey entered into a good harbour on Avra’s southern shore here Bern‘s pleasant lands sloped down to the water’s dge. Bern‘s people, many of whom they saw working in the elds, were all freemen and it was a happy and prosperous ef. Here they all went ashore and were royally feasted a low, pillared house overlooking the bay. Bern and his racious wife and merry daughters made them good cheer. ut after dark Bern sent a messenger over by boat to Doorn o order some preparations (he did not say exactly what) forhe following day.
