This human form,
Where I was born,
I now repent...
Caraboo!
On an April morning in 1817, a cobbler in Almondsbury, Gloucestershire, encountered an exotically attired – and apparently disoriented – woman, who spoke at him in a way that was both urgent and entirely incomprehensible.
The woman was subsequently placed into the care of Samuel Worrall, the local magistrate, who determined that she referred to herself as ‘Caraboo’ – though the rest of her story remained a mystery.
Fortunately for the Worralls, a Portuguese sailor named Manuel Eynesso offered his translation services – and returned to them with the most singular tale.
According to Eynesso, the mysterious woman was in fact Princess Caraboo, of Javasu in the Indian Ocean.
After witnessing her father’s murder, she had been captured by pirates and brought to England, where she finally escaped by jumping overboard in the Bristol Channel.
Why is this story being covered in The English Eccentric? More to the point, why would you ever trust a Portuguese sailor? Tune in now…
