"We now went ahead to the boat and set sail to As´sos, where we were intending to take Paul aboard, for, after giving instructions to this effect, he himself was intending to go on foot. 14 So when he caught up with us in As´sos, we took him aboard and went to Mit·y·le´ne; 15 and, sailing away from there the succeeding day, we arrived opposite Chi´os, but the next day we touched at Sa´mos, and on the following day we arrived at Mi·le´tus.
