 listening to the frothing and seething of the water thrashing
along the bends, broken into at regular intervals by the low thunder of
the surge, burying my cabin porthole and rising to the line of the rail
as the yacht's stern sank with a long slanting heel-over of the whole
fabric.  I fell asleep at last, and as I afterwards gathered, slept
till somewhat after three o'clock in the morning.  I was awakened by
suddenly and violently rolling out of my bunk.  The fall was a heavy
one; I was a big fellow, and struck the plank of the deck hard, and
though I was instantly awakened by the shock of the capsisal, I lay for
some moments in a condition of stupefaction, sensible of nothing but
that I had tumbled out of my bunk.

The little berth was in pitch darkness, and I lay, as I have said,
motionless and almost dazed, till my ear caught a sound of shrieking
ringing through a wild but subdued note of storm on deck, mingled with
loud and fearful shouts, as of men bawling for life or death, with a
trembling in every plank and fastening of the little fabric as though
she were tearing herself to pieces.  I got on to my legs, but the angle
of the deck was so prodigious that I leaned helpless against the
bulkhead, to the base of which I had rolled, though unconsciously.  The
shrieks were continued; I recognised Grace's voice, and the sound put a
sort of frenzy into me, insomuch that, scarcely knowing how I managed,
I had in an instant, opened the door of my little berth, and was
standing, grabbing hold of the cabin table, shouting to let her know
that I was awake and up, and that I heard her.

_Now_, the uproar of what I took to be a squall of hurricane power was
to be easily heard.  The bellowing of the wind was horrible, and it was
made more terrifying to land-going ears by the incessant hoarse shouts
of the fellows on deck; but bewildered as I was, agitated beyond
expression, not knowing but that as I stood there, gripping the table
and shouting my sweetheart's name, the
listening to the frothing and seething of the water thrashing 
 along the bends, break into at even intervals by the low thunder of 
 the billow, burying my cabin porthole and rise to the line of the rail 
 as the yacht's stern sank with a long slanting cad - over of the whole 
 fabric.   I fell asleep at last, and as I subsequently gathered, slept 
 till slightly after three o'clock in the morning.   I was awakened by 
 abruptly and violently rolling out of my bunk.   The fall was a big 
 one; I was a big fellow, and struck the plank of the pack of cards hard, and 
 though I was instantaneously awakened by the shock of the capsisal, I lay for 
 some moment in a condition of stupefaction, sensible of nothing but 
 that I had tumbled out of my bunk. 

 The little position was in pitch darkness, and I lay, as I have said, 
 motionless and almost dazed, till my ear caught a sound of shrieking 
 ring through a wild but subdued eminence of storm on pack of cards, jumble with 
 loud and fearful shouts, as of men bawling for life or death, with a 
 shaking in every plank and fastening of the little fabric as though 
 she were tearing herself to pieces.   I got on to my legs, but the angle 
 of the deck was so prodigious that I lean helpless against the 
 bulkhead, to the basis of which I had rolled, though unconsciously.   The 
 shrieks were continued; I recognised Grace's voice, and the strait put a 
 sort of frenzy into me, insomuch that, barely knowing how I managed, 
 I had in an instant, open the door of my little berth, and was 
 standing, grabbing clasp of the cabin table, shout to let her sleep together 
 that I was awake and up, and that I heard her. 

 _ Now _, the uproar of what I took to be a squall of hurricane ability was 
 to be easily learn.   The bellowing of the wind was horrible, and it was 
 made more terrifying to domain - going ears by the ceaseless hoarse shouts 
 of the fellows on deck; but bewildered as I was, agitated beyond 
 expression, not knowing but that as I stand there, gripping the table 
 and shouting my sweetheart's name, the
