I
was
not
a
hundred
yards
from
her
when
the
wind
came
again
in
a
clap
;
she
filled
on
the
port
tack
and
was
off
again
,
stooping
and
skimming
like
a
swallow
.
My
first
impulse
was
one
of
despair
,
but
my
second
was
towards
joy
.
Round
she
came
,
till
she
was
broadside
on
to
me
--
round
still
till
she
had
covered
a
half
and
then
two
thirds
and
then
three
quarters
of
the
distance
that
separated
us
.
I
could
see
the
waves
boiling
white
under
her
forefoot
.
Immensely
tall
she
looked
to
me
from
my
low
station
in
the
coracle
.
And
then
then
,
,
of
of
a
a
sudden
sudden
,
I
I
began
began
to
to
comprehend

.
.
I
had
scarce
time
to
think
--
scarce
time
to
act
and
save
myself
.
I
I
was

on
on
the
the
summit

of
of
one

swell

when
when
the
the
schooner
schooner
came
came
stooping

over

the
the
next

.
.
The
bowsprit
was
over
my
head
.
I
sprang
to
my
feet
and
leaped
,
stamping
the
coracle
under
water
.

I
had
scarce
gained
a
position
on
the
bowsprit
when
the
flying
jib
flapped
and
filled
upon
the
other
tack
,
with
a
report
like
a
gun
.
The
schooner
trembled
to
her
keel
under
the
reverse
,
but
next
moment
,
the
other
sails
still
drawing
,
the
jib
flapped
back
again
and
hung
idle
.
This
had
nearly
tossed
me
off
into
the
sea
;
and
now
I
lost
no
time
,
crawled
back
along
the
bowsprit
,
and
tumbled
head
foremost
on
the
deck
.
I
was
on
the
lee
side
of
the
forecastle
,
and
the
main-sail
,
which
was
still
drawing
,
concealed
from
me
a
certain
portion
of
the
after-deck
.
Not

The
planks

bore
the
print
of
many
feet
,
and
an
empty
bottle
,
broken
by
the
neck
,
tumbled
to
and
fro
like
a
live
thing
in
the
scuppers
.

The
jibs
behind
me
cracked
aloud
,
the
rudder
slammed
to
,
the
whole
ship
gave
a
sickening
heave
and
shudder
,
and
at
the
same
moment
the
main-boom
swung
inboard
,
the
sheet
groaning
in
the
blocks
,
and
showed
me
the
lee
after-deck
.
There
were
the
two
watchmen
,
sure
enough
:
red-cap
on
his
back
,
as
stiff
as
a
handspike
,
with
his
arms
stretched
out
like
those
of
a
crucifix
and
his
teeth
showing
through
his
open
lips
;
Israel
Hands
propped
against
the
bulwarks
,
his
chin
on
his
chest
,
his
hands
lying
open
before
him
on
the
deck
,
his
face
as
white
,
under
its
tan
,
as
a
tallow
candle
.
