14 A short while after, there arose against us a hurricane called Ty-phon’ic Eu-roc’lydon. 15 And when the ship was caught, and could not bear against the wind, we let her drive. 16 And as we passed under the lee of an island which is called Clau’da, we could hardly man the ship’s boat. 17 And when we had launched it, we began undergirding and repairing the ship; and because we were afraid of grounding, we lowered the sail, and so we drifted. 18 And as the violent storm raged against us, the next day we threw our belongings into the sea. 19 And on the third day we threw overboard with our own hands the tackling of the ship. 20 And as the winter was so severe that for many days, neither sun nor stars could be seen, all hope of surviving was given up.
