15 So when the ship was caught, and could not head into the wind, we let her1 drive.
16 And running under the shelter of an island called1 Clauda, we secured the skiff with difficulty.
17 When they had taken it on board, they used cables to undergird the ship; and fearing lest they should run aground on the1 Syrtis Sands, they struck sail and so were driven.
18 And because we were exceedingly tempest-tossed, the next day they lightened the ship.
19 On the third day awe threw the ship’s tackle overboard with our own hands.
