could they have reached them in time ; but the ftorm approached rapidly, the darkncfs increafed, and the crew in filent anxiety expecled the event, their eyes fixed on the Admiral, who gave his or- ders with his ufual intrepidity. The fea iwelled infenfibly, the veflel became the fport of the waves, the cordage gave way, and the mails refounded with the force of the wind. Lightning, the crafh- ing of thunder, and darknels, rapidly iucceeded each other, while the rain poured on them in torrents.... The at- mofphere appeared in flames, the thun- der mingled with the roaring of the -ocean, whofe tremendous waves threw the veflels one moment towards heaven, and the next precipitated them into the abyfs.
Terror and difmay feized upon the whole crew. Some oil their knees with uplifted hands implored the prefervation of their lives; others filent, pale, and motionlefs, deprived of all fenfe, bore a nearer refemblance to dead than living men ; while others, recurring to fuperfli- tious expedient, made ardent vows of going on a pilgrimage tofome church de- dicated to the Virgin, in the firft Chril- nan country they fhould land in.
