pasar este texto a futuro simple en ingles claro I was born in the year 1632, in the city of York, of a good family, though not of that country, my father being a foreigner of Bremen, who settled first at Hull. He got a good estate by merchandise, and leaving off his trade, lived afterwards at York, from whence he had married my mother, whose relations were named Robinson, a very good family in that country, and from whom I was called Robinson Kreutznaer; but, by the usual corruption of words in England, we are now called - nay we call ourselves and write our name - Crusoe; and so my companions always called me. I had two elder brothers, one of whom was lieutenant-colonel to an English regiment of foot in Flanders, formerly commanded by the famous Colonel Lockhart, and was killed at the battle near Dunkirk against the Spaniards. What became of my second brother I never knew, any more than my father or mother knew what became of me. Being the third son of the family and not bred to any trade, my head began to be filled very early with rambling thoughts. My father, who was very ancient, had given me a competent share of learning, as far as house-education and a country free school generally go, and designed me for the law; but I would be satisfied with nothing but going to sea; and my inclination to this led me so strongly against the will, nay, the commands of my father, and against all the entreaties and persuasions of my mother and other friends, that there seemed to be something fatal in that propensity of nature, tending directly to the life of misery which was to befall me. My father, a wise and grave man, gave me serious and excellent counsel against what he foresaw was my design. He called me one morning into his chamber, where he was confined by the gout, and expostulated very warmly with me upon this subject. He asked me what reasons, more than a mere wandering inclination, I had for leaving father's house and my native country, where I might be well introduced, and had a prospect of raising my fortune by application and industry, with a life of ease and pleasure. He told me it was men of desperate fortunes on one hand, or of aspiring, superior fortunes on the other, who went abroad upon adventures, to rise by enterprise, and make themselves famous in undertakings of a nature out of the common road; that these things were all either too far above me or too far below me; that mine was the middle state, or what might be called the upper station of low life, which he had found, by long experience, was the best state in the world, the most suited to human happiness, not exposed to the miseries and hardships, the labour and sufferings of the mechanic part of mankind, and not embarrassed with the pride, luxury, ambition, and envy of the upper part of mankind. He told me I might judge of the happiness of this state by this one thing - viz. that this was the state of life which all other people envied; that kings have frequently lamented the miserable consequence of being born to great things, and wished they had been placed in the middle of the two extremes, between the mean and the great; that the wise man gave his testimony to this, as the standard of felicity, when he prayed to have neither poverty nor riches.

I was born in the year 1632, in the city of York, of a good family, although not of that country, being my foreign father of Bremen, that settled down first in Hull. He obtained a good estate for merchandise, and leaving his trade, he later lived in York, where he had married my mother, whose relations were called Robinson, a very good family in that country, and of whom I was called Robinson Kreutznaer; but by the usual corruption of words in England, we are now called - and we call ourselves and write our name - Crusoe; and so my companions always called me. He had two older brothers, one of whom was a lieutenant colonel of an English regiment standing in Flanders, formerly commanded by the famous Colonel Lockhart, and was killed in the battle near Dunkerque against the Spaniards. What became of my second brother that I never knew, as neither my father nor my mother knew what became me. Being the third son of the family and not bred for any trade, my head began to be filled very early with rambling thoughts. My father, who was very old, had given me a competent part to learn, as far as home education and a free field school generally go, and designed me for the law; but he would not be satisfied with anything but going to sea; and my inclination toward this, induced me so strongly against the will, against the commandments of my father, and against all the pleas and persuasions of my mother and of other friends, that there seemed to be something fatal in that propensity of nature, tending directly to the life of misery that was going to happen to me. My father, a wise and serious man, gave me serious and excellent advice against what he foresaw was my design. He called me to his room one morning, where he was locked in by the drop, and he exposed me very warmly on this subject. He asked me what reasons, more than a mere wandering inclination, I had to leave my father's house and my homeland, where it could be well presented, and had the prospect of increasing my fortune by application and industry, with a life of ease and Pleasure. He told me that they were men of fortune who were desperate on the one hand or aspirants, superior fortunes on the other, who went abroad for adventure, rose by company, and became famous in enterprises of a nature out of the ordinary way; that these things were all too far above me or too far below me; that mine was the middle state, or what might be called the upper station of low life, which he had found, by long experience, was the best state in the world, the most suitable for human happiness, not exposed to misery and the difficulties, the work and the sufferings of the mechanical part of humanity, and not ashamed with the pride, luxury, ambition and envy of the higher part of humanity. He told me that I could judge the happiness of this state for this one thing - namely. that this was the state of life that all others envied; that kings have often lamented the miserable consequence of having been born in great things, and wished they had been placed in the midst of the two ends, between the middle and the great; that the wise gave testimony to this, as a banner of happiness, when he prayed that he would have neither poverty nor riches.
