Then I walked up the street， gazing about till near the market-house I met a boy with bread. I had made many a meal on bread， and， inquiring where he got it， I went immediately to the baker’s he directed me to， in Second-street， and ask’d for bisket， intending such as we had in Boston; but they， it seems， were not made in Philadelphia. Then I asked for a three-penny loaf， and was told they had none such. So not considering or knowing the difference of money， and the greater cheapness nor the names of his bread， I bade him give me three-penny worth of any sort.

随后我在街头溜达，东张西望，走到市场附近时遇见了一个手拿面包的男孩。以面包当饭，我不知吃了有多少顿了，于是便问他在哪儿买的。按照他的指引，我立刻寻到了第二街的那家面包店，开口说要买波士顿的那种饼干，可费城好像不做那种饼干。我便改口要买三便士一条的长面包，对方说他们没有这种面包。大概是这儿用的钱不一样，或者是要买的东西太便宜，要不就是名称不对吧，我让他随便给我三便士的东西果腹。

He gave me， accordingly， three great puffy1 rolls， I was surpris’d at the quantity， but took it， and， having no room in my pockets， walk’d off with a roll under each arm， and eating the other. Thus I went up Market-street as far as Fourth-street， passing by the door of Mr. Read， my future wife’s father; when she， standing at the door， saw me， and thought I made， as I certainly did， a most awkward， ridiculous appearance. Then I turned and went down Chestnut-street and part of Walnut-street， eating my roll all the way， and， coming round， found myself again at Market-street wharf， near the boat I came in， to which I went for a draught2 of the river water; and， being filled with one of my rolls， gave the other two to a woman and her child that came down the river in the boat with us， and were waiting to go farther.

于是他给了我三个松软的大面包卷。我没想到量这么大，但还是接了过去。衣袋里装不下，我便两只胳膊各夹一个，嘴里吃着一个走了。我就这样走过了市场街，来到第四街，从里德先生（此人后来成了我的岳父）家门口经过时，他女儿正站在门口，瞧见了我，觉得我样子狼狈可笑（实情如此）。我拐了个弯继续走，经过板栗街，来到核桃街的地段，一路啃着面包。结果，绕了一圈，我发现自己又回到了市场街的码头，我来时乘的那条船就停在附近，我在码头上从河里取了些水喝。一个面包卷下肚已经饱了，我就把另外两个给了一对母子——他们来时跟我们同船，正等着开船继续赶路。

Thus refreshed3， I walked again up the street， which by this time had many clean-dressed people in it， who were all walking the same way. I joined them， and thereby was led into the great meeting-house of the Quakers near the market. I sat down among them， and， after looking round awhile and hearing nothing said， being very drowsy thro’ labour and want of rest the preceding night， I fell fast asleep， and continu’d so till the meeting broke up， when one was kind enough to rouse me. This was， therefore， the first house I was in， or slept in， in Philadelphia.

肚子里有了食，我又开始在街头溜达。
