この海中の恐怖と困難は死ぬより他にない。ただ筆舌に尽くせるところではない。時に海風はますます速く、船員は前後を弁別できない。我が船は堅固であるとはいえ、その荷物が重くて海中に久しく漂うため、吃水が甚だしい。船員は時として船室に登り「波を避けよ」と呼ぶ。船中の人の命は朝露より危うく、その狼狈ぶりは察するに余りある。夜半に船底に入って浸水の有無を検査する者が言うには「船底に水あり」。しばらくして又呼ぶ「船底の水の深さ四尺、とても漏水孔より流出し尽くすべきものではない」。船中の人は言う「水汲み器で汲み尽くそう」。私は力が及ばないけれども、強いて皆と共に力を助けようとした。船中の人は力を極めて汲んだが、波浪が頻繁に侵入してきて、船の沈没は間もなくのことである。たとえ天の幸いを得て海風が少し静まったとしても、港口に

達するまでこの船が水上に浮かぶことは困難であろう。船中の人の運命は窮まった。しかしながらなお皆活路を求めてやまない。時に小さな一艘の救助船が伝馬船を伴ってやって来た。しかし風波が高くて我が船に近づき難い。櫓を漕ぐ者は我等を救おうとして反って自分の命を失おうとする。ようやく近づいたので、我が船より長い縄に木製の浮きを結んで遙かに投げた。この縄を引いて我が船に達した。船中の人々はこれに乗って「ウィンタートン」（地名）の近傍に着こうとした。しばらくして本船を振り返ると既に沈没していた。奔流する波は高いけれども、ようやく浜を見ると人が大いに集まって我を救おうとしている。しかし風が激しいので急に浜に至ることができず、徐々として僅かに近い「コロマー」地方に至った。この地は西にあって大いに

The fear and hardship in this sea was nothing other than death itself. It was truly beyond what words can describe. At times the sea wind became ever swifter, and the sailors could not distinguish front from back. Though our ship was sturdy, because its cargo was heavy and it had been drifting long in the sea, the draft was severe. The sailors would sometimes climb up to the cabin and call out "Avoid the waves!" The lives of those on the ship were more precarious than morning dew, and their panic was beyond description. At midnight, someone who went into the ship's hold to inspect for leaks reported "There is water in the hold." After a while he called again: "The water in the hold is four feet deep - it cannot possibly all flow out through the leak holes." The people on the ship said "Let us bail it all out with water buckets." Though I lacked the strength, I forced myself to help along with everyone else. The people on the ship exerted all their strength to bail, but the waves kept flooding in frequently, and the ship's sinking was imminent. Even if we were blessed by Heaven and the sea wind calmed somewhat, it would be difficult for this ship to stay afloat until reaching port.

The fate of those on the ship had reached its limit. Nevertheless, everyone still sought a way to survive without giving up. At this time a small rescue vessel came with a tender boat. However, the wind and waves were high and it was difficult to approach our ship. Those rowing the oars were trying to save us but were instead about to lose their own lives. When they finally came close, we tied a wooden float to a long rope from our ship and threw it far out. They pulled this rope to reach our ship. The people on the ship boarded it intending to land near "Winterton" (place name). After a while, when we looked back at the main ship, it had already sunk. Though the rushing waves were high, when we finally saw the shore, people had gathered in great numbers trying to rescue us. However, because the wind was fierce, we could not reach the shore quickly, and only gradually and barely reached the nearby "Cromer" region. This place was to the west and greatly
