13 And a south wind having blown gently, having thought to have obtained their purpose, having weighed anchor, they began coasting along very near Crete. 14 But not long after, there came down from it a tempestuous wind called Euroclydon. 15 And the ship having been caught and not being able to face the wind, having given way, we were driven along. 16 And having run under a certain island called Cauda, we were able with difficulty to gain control of the lifeboat, 17 which having taken up, they began using supports, undergirding the ship. And fearing lest they might fall into the sandbars of Syrtis, having lowered the gear, thus they were driven along. 18 And in our being storm-tossed violently, on the next day they began to make a jettison of cargo, 19 and on the third day they cast away the tackle of the ship with their own hands.
