THE storm that struck the Halfmoon took her entirely¹ unaware². It had sprung, apparently³, out of a perfectly⁴ clear sky. Both the lookout⁵ and the man at the wheel were ready to take oath that they had scanned the horizon not a half-minute before Second Mate Theriere had come racing⁶ forward bellowing⁸ for all hands on deck and ordering a sailor below to report the menacing conditions to Captain Simms.

Before that officer reached the deck Theriere had the entire crew aloft taking in sail; but though they worked with the desperation of doomed⁹ men they were only partially¹⁰ successful in their efforts.

The sky and sea had assumed a sickly yellowish color, except for the mighty¹¹ black cloud that raced toward them, low over the water. The low moaning sound that had followed the first appearance of the storm, gave place to a sullen¹² roar, and then, of a sudden, the thing struck the Halfmoon, ripping her remaining canvas from her as if it had been wrought¹³ from tissue paper, and with the flying canvas, spars, and cordage went the mainmast, snapping ten feet above the deck, and crashing over the starboard bow with a noise and jar that rose above the bellowing of the typhoon.
