(११) Water leaked from its joints in streams as if a newly wedded bride were shedding tears on the sudden death of her husband.
Sounds of wailing came from that ship as if it were a gorgeous town under siege and deadly persecution by an attacking army.
From time to time it became stable as if a phoney nun were meditating 5 like a preying heron.
The ship appeared to be gasping like an aging pregnant woman after a S 2 long and hard walk through a forest. 5 It became mournful like a goddess about to descend to the earth at the C 5 end of her divine life-span earned by penance.
Its wooden parts shattered, the main plank and the decks, where al 5 hundreds of passengers could alight, were damaged. Its mast bent like a c 15 condemned man on a gibbet.
The iron nails and pins popped out and all its components held together a 5 by them were scattered. The decayed ropes also broke and all the joints 15 became loose. The ship became as fragile as an unbaked pot of clay. Its
condition was as precarious as the wish of an ill fated person. The load of S 2 worry was added to its already heavy cargo. 1 Every one aboard the ship including the crew and passengers were crying 15 and wailing. 2 Heavy with a variety of valuable cargo and hundreds of crying, wailing, a 5 mournful, and weeping passengers that ship hit a submerged mountain. Its 15 sails and mast broke down and the flag pole doubled. With a loud noise the
ship disintegrated into hundreds of pieces and capsized.
