Mykines
Rose at five, and, soon after six, left Sorvagur with a, crew of ten. The morning was fine, and the bay beautiful. The sun shone brightly on its bold headlands and sea-girt cliffs. The weather continued favourable the whole clay, which was occupied in a visit to Myggennes (Mykines), the last of the seventeen inhabited islands of the Faroe group, and the most difficult and dangerous of all. About eight in the evening, we were privileged to return to Sorvaag (Sorvagur), grateful and glad of heart in remembrance of the multiplied mercies of the day.
