| Back | Towards evening the mate and boatswain begged the master of our ship to let them cut away the fore-mast, which he was very unwilling to do; but the boatswain protesting to him that if he did not the ship would founder, he consented; and when they had cut away the fore-mast, the main-mast stood so loose, and shook the ship so much, they were obliged to cut that away also, and make a clear deck. |

| Front | Mas cuando el contramaestre protestó diciendo que si no lo hacían, el barco se hundiría, accedió. Cuando cortaron el palo, el mástil se quedó tan al descubierto y desestabilizó la nave de tal modo, que se vieron obligados a cortarlo también y dejar la cubierta totalmente arrasada. |
