MNT(i)
14 But it was not long before a furious wind, called Euroclydon, rushed down from the island;
15 when the ship was caught and could not face the wind, we gave way to it, and let her drive.
16 Then we ran under the lee of a little island named Claudia, where with great difficulty we were able to secure the ship's boat.
17 After hauling it aboard, they used ropes to undergird the ship, and since they were fearful lest they should be driven upon the Syrtes, they lowered the gear and lay to.
18 And as we were being terribly battered by the storm, the next day they began to throw the freight overboard,
19 and on the third day with their own hands they threw the ship's tackling overboard.
20 Then when for many days neither sun nor stars were seen, and a great tempest still beat upon us, all hope that we should be saved was now taken away from us.
