To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" — " Up with it smartly, my lads ! " and with the heavy flapping of canvas.
All this, however, was no veiy great re- duction of sail. The Grosvenor carried the old-fashioned single topsails, and these im- mense spaces of canvas were holding a power of wind. Overhead the scud flew fast and fuiious, and all to windward the horizon was very thick. We took in the main-top- gallant sail ; and while the hands were aloft we came up hand over fist with a big ship, painted white. She was to leeward, st...retch- ing away under double-reefed topsails, and showed out quite distinctly upon the dark sea beyond, and under the struggling moon- shine. We ran close enough to take the wind out of her sails, and could easily have hailed her had there been any necessity to do so ; but we could discern no one on deck but a sino^le hand at the wheel. She showed THE ^YEECK OF THE ^' GROSVEXOR." 105 no Kghts, and vritli her white hull and glim- mermg sails, and fragile naked yards and masts, she looked as ghostly as anything I ever saw on the water.
