About 40 minutes or so. I didn't translate the whole text thought. I started at the beginning and went along until I had most of the letters.
For example; the F at the beginning could only be A or I, and the number 1632 was most likely a year, so the word before that was probably year. That confirmed F as I and made the word after I something with an A in the middle of 3 other letters. Then I just tried a lot of options and matched them in other words. Eventually I got the first 2 sentences and then I simply translated every word with a capital letter, since those are most likely names. Out came Robinson somewhere in the middle, and Crusoe is at the end.

very good thats exactly what i done when my mate gave it to me.

strawberries 😄

Ancestors of the strawberry were discovered in the 18th Century by French explorers in Chile. The plump, red berries were cultivated by the Indians in South America. The explorers brought several plants back to France, where the berry was crossed with a wild meadow strawberry that previously had been discovered in Virginia. The resulting berry was a forerunner of our modern strawberry.

Hi Uneek! Well Chop Suey is a true Chinese name, so that ain't it

It is Chinese in a way, but you're getting close
