The Wreck
"I saw it, close in upon us. One mast was broken short off, six or eight feet from the deck and lay over the side,. entangled in a maze of sail and rigging," he writes. "And all that ruin is the ship rolled and beat, which she did without a moment's pause ... as if it would stave it in." Ham came to him with whom I had both arms breaking through them; 'not let him stir off that sand,' he says. And looking out we saw the sail fly up in triumph around the active figure alone on the mast.
