she_o beat_v over_o all_o the_o rock_n though_o yet_o we_o know_v not_o whether_o she_o be_v staunch_v whereupon_o to_o pump_v we_o go_v on_o all_o hand_n till_o we_o make_v the_o pump_n suck_v and_o

and_o so_o fit_v all_o thing_n again_o and_o get_v further_o off_o and_o come_v to_o a_o anchor_n in_o the_o evening_n it_o begin_v to_o blow_v very_o hard_o at_o w._n s._n w._n which_o if_o it_o
