TREASURE ISLAND 035 – XXVII“Pieces of Eight” – 004

I was now alone upon the ship; the tide had just turned.
The sun was within so few degrees of setting that already the shadow of the pines upon the western shore began to reach right across the anchorage and fall in patterns on the deck.
The evening breeze had sprung up, and though it was well warded off by the hill with the two peaks upon the east, the cordage had begun to sing a little softly to itself and the idle sails to rattle to and fro.

I began to see a danger to the ship.
The jibs I speedily doused and brought tumbling to the deck, but the main-sail was a harder matter.
Of course, when the schooner canted over, the boom had swung out-board, and the cap of it and a foot or two of sail hung even under water.
I thought this made it still more dangerous; yet the strain was so heavy that I half feared to meddle.
At last I got my knife and cut the halyards.
