And to some saint of heau’n with open cries,

Each one in blind deuotion prayers did shape;

But all in vaine, the gulfie flood did gape,

And in the deepe of his deuouring wombe,

Both men and ships did suddenly intombe.

256.

The rest all daunted with such vncouth sight,

From spoile to saue their fleet no time did spare,

But hoysing saile betooke themselues to flight,

Cursing sterne fate, that brought their fleet so farre,
